Fencing was installed around the Supreme Court in Washington overnight on May 4 as protests over a leaked opinion regarding Roe v. Wade continue.

Video footage and photographs show workers erecting the fence, which stands about eight feet high and resembles the fence the U.S. Capitol Police put up around the U.S. Capitol following the breach on Jan. 6, 2021.
