Rep. Judy Chu was arrested at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday during a demonstration calling on Congress to find a legislative fix for the legal status of hundreds of thousands of people brought into the country illegally as children.
Chu (D-Monterey Park), sitting in the first row of protesters on the Capitol steps and holding a banner that said “Defend our immigrant communities,” was among the first people arrested after Capitol Police repeatedly ordered the protesters to leave.
Before the arrest, she attended a nearby rally in support of the so-called Dreamers and made it clear she intended to get arrested during a demonstration afterward, even posting a photo of her “civil disobedience starter kit.”
"Civil disobedience starter kit. On my way to go get arrested. #cleanDREAMact now!"

Indiana Congressman Todd Rokita introduced a bill Friday, that could imprison and fine public officials $1 million if they obstruct federal immigration authority efforts.
The legislation targets sanctuary cities, which shelter undocumented immigrants or don’t cooperate with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Under Rokita’s Stopping Lawless Actions of Politicians (SLAP) Act, violators could face up to five years of prison time and a fine of up to $1 million for ignoring the federal government’s requests for custody of undocumented individuals.
