WAUSAU, Wis. (AP) -- Peace activists have been arrested again at Congressman Dave Obey's office in Wausau.
Four protesters refused to leave Obey's office when it closed last night at five.
The four want Obey to promise he'll vote to deny additional funding for the war in Iraq.
Wausau police gave the four a chance to leave, but they refused and were arrested on disorderly conduct charges.
The group started with six.
They read the names of fallen soldiers for about two hours before police arrived.
Three people were arrested last month after refusing to leave Obey's office.
