100 protesters were removed from the antechamber to the Wisconsin Assembly chamber which will, imminently, vote on the bill passed last night by the Senate.

The members of the Assembly are filing in now, Meade tells me by phone.

UPDATE: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
The Assembly ripped into a bitter debate over Gov. Scott Walker's budget-repair and union-bargaining bill Thursday afternoon after police carried protesters out of the body to make way for GOP lawmakers to enter.
UPDATE 2: CNN reports from the "chaotic" scene. He describes police picking up protesters and carrying or dragging them out — "forcibly." It's not clear whether anyone is being arrested.
