"I agree, it's illegitimate," one demonstrator told Fox News. "We just have to keep fighting, and we have to keep going."

After the high court's 5-4 ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, Ocasio-Cortez chanted with protesters calling the decision "illegitimate."

Another woman said she felt "what AOC probably meant" was that "we really need all kinds of state legislators and courts to act rationally and judge fairly and not judge in the partisan and corrupt way that the courts have been."
