At least one protester was reportedly arrested on Thursday for interrupting Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) while he was speaking at a closed-door Chamber of Commerce luncheon in Covington, Kentucky.
In video posted on Twitter, the woman can be heard calmly saying, "We want to talk to you. Please come face-to-face with your constituents and stop pay-to-play."
The woman was later seen in handcuffs being escorted by two police officers.
A second protester also interrupted the Majority Leader, but it was not immediately clear if he was arrested.
