Alyssa Milano, Debra Messing and other members of Hollywood wore black on Monday to show “solidarity” with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser Christine Blasey Ford.

“Dr. Christine Blasey Ford has bravely come forward and shared her story about her sexual assault at the hands of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, ” a description on Facebook read about the walkout organized by groups like Planned Parenthood Action and NARAL Pro-Choice America.

“Even though Dr. Blasey Ford has repeatedly stated her desire to testify and bravely share her story, Senate Republicans are doing everything they can to shame, bully, and force her to testify under their unacceptable, inappropriate conditions,” it added.

The event was originally planned to show support for Ford, but was expanded to include backing for Deborah Ramirez who has since alleged Kavanaugh exposed himself to her in the 80s when the two were at a party in college.

“I believe Dr Ford. I believe Deborah Ramirez. Why would they put themselves and their families through HELL? I believe psychiatrist’s notes from years ago. I believe lie the detector tests. #BrettKavanaugh Why don’t you ask the FBI to investigate to prove your innocence,” Debra Messing tweeted Monday to her thousands of followers.

“I believe Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. I’ll be joining the nationwide walkout with my sisters and brothers across the country on Monday at 1pmET/10amPT to stand in solidarity with her and survivors everywhere. Please help me spread the word. #BelieveSurvivors,” Milano tweeted.
