Witness Against Torture Protest

WASHINGTON – Josie Setzler, a protester with Witness Against Torture from Fremont, Ohio, throws away her sign outside the confirmation hearing for Attorney General-designate, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., on Wednesday Jan. 11, 2017, in the Russell Senate Office Building. The first day of Sessions’ hearing was plagued with rowdy protesters, leading to a ban on bringing signs into the room. (Tom Hausman/Capital News Service via AP)
