With regard to the contraception bill, I've not read any GOP statements from those who voted no, but I will note that the definition of "contraceptive" in the bill includes emergency contraceptives, which many consider abortifacients, so the vote against the bill could be a concern that it's a back-door way to effectively preempt state laws that limit access to abortifacient drugs.
In the United States, interracial marriage has been legal since 1967 and same-sex since 2015. Congress is just wasting time, as they are wont to do, rehashing old results. And, as for the Supreme court protesters, issues have been determined. Marching around screaming and smelling will only get you placed in a white jacket. Go home and do something constructive such as help a neighbor paint their house while they sit on the porch smoking, drinking beer and laughing at you.
Interracial marriage has been legal since 1967 because of a Supreme Court decision. Same with same-sex marriage in 2015.
Same with abortion (Roe v. Wade) - until it wasn't legal anymore in 2022. We've just watched how something changed because Congress has not passed a law.
Depending on the state, abortion is very much legal. Protesters should take up any disagreement with their state legislators. The Supreme courts job is to rule on the constitutionality of the laws that state and federal governments churn out mostly based on their political affiliation and the edicts their bureaucratic partners enact with no apparent impunity.
As an aside, we can discuss local, state and federal term limits at a later time.

You shouldn’t assume.
