“Thousands Protest Money in Politics at Capitol, Arrests Made”

Roll Call:

More than 3,600 protesters, demanding that money be taken out of politics, arrived at the U.S. Capitol on Monday for a mass sit-in that quickly led to arrests.

The Democracy Spring protesters marched from Philadelphia to the Capitol, a 140-mile trek, over nine days. The group plans to rally at the Capitol every day this week with a different theme for each protest.

On Monday, protesters rallied on the East Front of the Capitol facing the Supreme Court, behind a line of Capitol Police officers.- See more at:
