On the 5th of March, protesters demanding that Congress pass a clean DREAM act hammered Capitol Hill and the Democrats with a two-pronged direct action. A march from Union Station was able to storm Democratic Party headquarters and confront Nancy Pelosi in person. In addition protesters marched up the Mall and some locked down in a hard blockade to shut down Independence Ave by the Capitol itself. Over 80 arrests were reported.
