"Eight Democratic members of Congress joined with activists on Tuesday to block a street in view of the Capitol, an attempt to reignite immigration reform efforts that have stalled out in the House.
Reps. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), Civil rights veteran John Lewis (D-GA), Keith Ellison (D-MN), Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), Joe Crowley (D-NY), Al Green (D-TX), Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) and Charlie Rangel (D-NY) participated in the protest. More than 200 people were arrested in total, including faith leaders, members of advocacy groups and other activists."
