Wisconsin lawmaker & state official threatened with arrest for observing protest

“A Wisconsin lawmaker and a state official were both threatened with arrest for observing a progressive ‘Solidarity Sing Along’ protest at the state Capitol. State Rep. Sondy Pope and executive secretary Tia Nelson of the Board of Commissioners of Public Lands told Isthmus they were threatened with arrest by a Capitol Police officer. The officer told the two women that anyone who stood to watch the protest rather than moving along was subject to arrest.  In July, a judge ruled that groups of more than 20 people could not gather in the Wisconsin Capitol without a permit. Police have issued more than 100 citations to protesters so far.”
