U.S. Capitol Police zip-tied older people in their wheelchairs during a "die-in" demonstration protesting President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill," which is estimated to cut Medicaid by $793 billion over the next 10 years.
More than 30 protesters were arrested Wednesday for "illegally demonstrating inside the Russell Senate Office Building," a spokesperson for the U.S. Capitol Police told CNBC. "It is against the law to protest inside the Congressional buildings," the spokesperson said, adding that "there are other places on Capitol grounds where people can lawfully demonstrate without issue."
