Wisconsin Capitol illegally closed to newcomers

It's illegal to block public access to the Wisconsin State Capitol Building (See Article I, 4), but it appears that Governor Scott Walker is attempting to do that, anyway. Today, the Capitol has been closed to any protesters who didn't spend last night inside. Authorities say they won't let any new protesters in until everyone left inside leaves. When Rep. Kelda Helen Roys refused to show ID, she wasn't allowed in, either. The Governor is giving a speech tonight on his budget proposals, and I'm certain that has absolutely nothing to do with the timing of this lockdown....
