Answer: supporters

The denotation (the literal meaning, or "dictionary" meaning) of the word "proponents" is "supporters." This is implied in the passage, as it tells us that the protestors opposed the proponents of the bill. Those who disagree with the protestors are logically those who do support the bill.
