Budget Cut Protesters Storm Statehouse
An otherwise routine day filled with committee hearings was augmented by noisy protests at the Statehouse. A group known as Action Now filled the Statehouse with chants and boisterous displays of attention-getting as they protested against proposed budget cuts. At one point they breeched protocol in the House Gallery and were summarily removed from the chamber. The picture below is of the group snaking its way from the Statehouse to the Governor's Mansion, where the revelry continued. They created quite the ruckus as they passed my office. At one point the protestors took it upon themselves to block off the intersection.
