DACA Deadline Protest

Hundreds of young undocumented immigrants and their allies from Florida to California came to Capitol Hill Monday, March 5, 2018 - the day President Donald Trump set for the end of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program - to protest and lobby members of Congress to pass legislation that would protect them.The protesters held sit-ins at lawmakers' offices, including one outside House Speaker Paul Ryan's office, and outside the Capitol chained themselves to one another, closing a nearby street to traffic. U.S. Capitol Police said they made 87 arrests, 68 outside and 19 inside the Capitol.All arrested were charged with “crowding, obstructing, or incommoding” and 28 of the protesters were charged with resisting arrest, police said.
