Arrests are under way, bus is out front…

"Add the Words" protesters are arrested in Senate garden-level corridor by the Idaho State Police on Thursday, after they blockaded Senate committee hearing rooms (Betsy Russell)

Arrests of “Add the Words” protesters are under way in the Senate garden level hallway. Idaho State Police troopers are leading the protesters quietly, in small groups, to a ground-floor Capitol visitors room for processing, as they did during the last protest that resulted in arrests; also like last time, a large bus is parked in front of the Capitol, waiting to take those arrested to jail.
