A small group of protestors in Brownsville has joined a national movement to 'occupy' federal courthouses on Friday morning.

Protestors around the national planned to "occupy" courthouses in more than 100 cities across the United States.

The Brownsville protestors told Action 4 News that they are against a U.S. Supreme Court decision about campaign finance.

The supreme court ruling removed limits on corporate and labor union contributions or spending in federal elections.

Action 4 News will have an interview with the protestors during our 5 and 6 p.m. newscasts.
