Representative Nydia Velazquez, a Democrat from New York, from left, Representative Ilhan Omar, Democrat from Minnesota, Representative Jackie Speier, a Democrat from California, Representative Carolyn Maloney, a Democrat from New York, and Representative Alma Adams, a Democrat from North Carolina, march toward the US Supreme Court during a protest of the court overturning Roe v. Wade in Washington, D.C., US, on Tuesday, July 19, 2022. The high court's reversal of the 1973 landmark decision protecting the federal right to abortion has sent shock waves through the medical, legal and advocacy communities with the White House signing an executive order intended to preserve access to the procedure.

At least 17 Democratic members of the US Congress have been arrested at an abortion rights protest in Washington DC.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar were among those detained near the Supreme Court.

They were seen chanting “hands off our bodies” and blocking a street before being led away by police.

The protest follows a Supreme Court ruling that ended the nationwide right to abortion.
