Three people were arrested after refusing to leave Congressman Dave Obey's Wausau office.

The three were part of the group led by former Green Party Congressional Candidate Mike Miles, who met with a member of Obey's staff and called on Obey to be a stronger opponent of the war.

Police Lieutenant Ben Bliven says the three then refused to leave the office, saying they wanted to speak directly to the Congressman.

The man and two women were picked up for disorderly conduct. They were released on signature bonds Monday night.
