Democratic women attending Tuesday's Joint Session of Congress are wearing pink to protest President Donald Trump.

More than 30 Democratic women were seen wearing the color, including Hawaii Rep. Jill Tokuda, who had portions of the Constitution written on a pink suit.

"Pink is a color of protest & power. We're sending a message: Trump’s policies are devastating women," Rep. Judy Chu, D-Calif., wrote on X. "He's raising grocery prices, he’s stealing health care, & he’s threatening our safety."

Some Democratic men were seen yellow and blue ties to stand with Ukraine following Trump's confrontation in a diplomatic meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy Friday.

Trump is set to address the joint session and is expected to defend tariffs that sent the stock market tumbling in the first major speech of his second term.
