Three arrested for assault during Nick Shirley-related political rally at State Capitol<\/p>\n

\"DavidSACRAMENTO, Calif. \u2014<\/p>\n

Three people were arrested on assault charges during a political rally at the State Capitol on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

Conservative influencer Nick Shirley and his supporters gathered to oppose a law designed to protect the information of immigration workers, claiming it limits public access to government information. <\/p>\n

Tensions were high as California Highway Patrol officers stood between protesters and counter-protesters on the west steps. <\/p>\n

CHP announced one arrest and Sacramento police announced two arrests. Officers have not disclosed who was arrested or which group they were affiliated with. <\/p>\n

The event opposed a new law that keeps the home addresses of immigration workers confidential, with penalties for sharing that information. Critics have dubbed it the “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” arguing it could make it harder for journalists and the public to hold government officials accountable. <\/p>\n

Supporters of the law argue it is designed to protect immigration workers from harassment, while including safeguards that protect investigative journalism and free speech.<\/p>\n
