Several people were arrested in downtown Orlando on Tuesday afternoon, as they rallied House Republicans to move on stalled immigration reform.
Protesters blocked traffic at a downtown intersection at Huey and Washington Street, following a march pressing for immigration reform.
Fifteen people were arrested and charged with unlawful assembly, police said.
Supporters of immigration reform would like the House to pass a comprehensive immigration reform bill.
But, House Republican leaders have said that without a majority of GOP lawmakers, they will not pass the reform package that cleared the Senate.
House Democrats have produced similar legislation, but have only the support of two Republicans.
