Women sympathizers disrupt Senate chamber in Ireland protest
In Washington on June 1, women supporters of Irish freedom interrupted both chambers. The disruption began during Senator Brandegee’s remarks and continued as women shouted from the gallery and floor. Guards ejected several, but no charges were filed. The incident drew calls from Representative Blanton to close galleries and detain the protesters.
