On Saturday night, Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) called the police after pro-abortion protestors wrote a message on the sidewalk in front of her house urging her to vote for the Women's Health Protection Act.
According to the Portland Press Herald, the red, white, and blue message written on the sidewalk read: "Susie, please, Mainers want WHPA —–> vote yes, clean up your mess." The dot in the "I" of Maine had been replaced with the drawing of a uterus and Fallopian tubes.
Police responded to Collins' Bangor, Maine residence just after 9 PM and filed a report, stating that they did a check and didn't find anyone on the property.
The police deemed the display to not be a crime, and Public Works employees came to wash the message away.
The message was written ahead of the anticipated vote on the WHPA, which Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said will take place on Wednesday.
The legislation looks to codify abortion rights into law, and followed a leaked draft opinion document from the Supreme Court indicating that a majority of the justices would vote to overturn Roe v. Wade.
The display at Collins' house was notably less eventful than those seen outside the homes of Supreme Court Justices over the weekend. On Saturday, protestors descended upon the Maryland homes of Justices Brett Kavanaugh and John Roberts, holding a "candlelight vigil for Roe."
On Monday, protestors held a similar event outside the home of Justice Samuel Alito in Virginia, with some protestors appearing in black bloc attire.
According to Forbes, Collins has stated that she will not vote in support of the WHPA, telling reporters that the legislation is too broad.
