“We’re walking on the sidewalk outside of the Capitol right now, trying to find our group of people that were just arrested outside of Kevin McCarthy’s office…. We are going to find them.
We scheduled a sit in at McCarthy’s office. We occupied the office for about 10 minutes before we were given one warning by the Capitol Police. After that, we went outside, held space in the hallway outside the office and we sang, and we told stories, and the Capitol Police continued to threaten to arrest us.
At that point. I and other people who are in communications roles moved out of the hallway. We were told to stand somewhere separate and far away.
Then we stood in the hallway and listened to the echoes of our friends continuing to sing as all of them were arrested, demanding that the GOP not shut down the government and that they act on climate immediately.”
