Progressive Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) was arrested near the Capitol on Thursday while protesting voting rights.
It comes after his fellow Squad members attacked their Democratic Senate counterparts Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema for siding with 50 Republicans to uphold the filibuster even as they stopped voting rights legislation they supported from passing.
"Today, Congressman Jamaal Bowman joined a voting rights non-violent direct action at the North Barricade of the US Capitol Building and was arrested by the US Capitol Police," Bowman spokesman Marcus Frias told numerous outlets.

Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., hinted at racism on Wednesday night in Manchin and Sinema's decision to keep the rule requiring 60 votes in the Senate to pass most legislation.
"The legacy of Jim Crow is alive and well in 2022," she expressed. "That's all I have to say right now about Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema, and Senate Republicans."
ELON MUSK'S LEGAL SALVO AGAINST HATE SPEECH BACKFIRES AFTER JUDGE DISMISSES LAWSUIT
The voting rights package failed to pass Wednesday night with 50 Democrats voting for it and 50 Republicans voting against it. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who knew the legislation would fail but forced a vote, then put up a vote on a rules change that would have instituted a "talking filibuster" on the package, allowing a simple majority vote to move it forward after senators stood at their desks and exhausted the debate.
As expected, that vote failed too, with Manchin and Sinema siding with Republicans to uphold the 60-vote hurdle to most legislation.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., said that Manchin, Sinema, and Republicans believe "democracy is not for all of us."
