Activists are back on the Hill engaging in civil disobedience to protest the #GOPTaxScam. Actions to be happening all day. First one was in front of @RepMimiWalters’s office @popdemoc @womensmarch

Woke up this morning with my mind set on freedom, justice, and health care. Headed to the #NotOnePenny rally.

Inside @JerryMoran’s office now. Activists from Kansas speak: “Without provisions like the individual mandate, I’d be dead.”

Activists from Maine and @AdyBarkan enter @SenatorCollins’ office for a meeting

Protesters were waiting quietly in the halls after two warnings when officers yelled to start arrests because they started snapping. According to the officers, speaking or doing anything in louder than a “tourist voice” constitutes protesting and is grounds for arrest.

We’ve been outside of @SenatorCollins’ office for awhile now because she actually brought the activists in for a meeting. Good on her—first time I’ve seen a Member of Congress do that in awhile.

Hopefully she #ListentoAdy and does the right thing

Activists return from their meeting with @SenatorCollins and report back she doesn’t say she’ll vote no on the bill. Chants of “shame!” break out. “I’m so disappointed in her,” @AdyBarkan says.
