Police arrested dozens of disability-rights activists among the 200 who lined up to protest at Monday’s Senate Finance Committee hearing on the latest Republican effort to repeal and replace Obamacare, which is spearheaded by Sens. Lindsey Graham and Bill Cassidy.

Protesters chanted, "No cuts to Medicaid! Save our liberty!" bringing the proceedings to a halt. Sen. Orrin Hatch, who put the committee in recess as police forcibly removed the protesters — many in wheelchairs — told the crowd that if they couldn’t remain quiet, “then get the heck out,” HuffPo reported.
