Rep. Joyce Beatty, chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus, was one of several people arrested on Thursday afternoon after marching through the Hart Senate Office Building in protest of voting laws.
Beatty, an Ohio Democrat, wore a shirt that read “protect our voting rights” while she linked arms with other activists who sang as they entered the Senate building. They later chanted, “End the filibuster.”
