Jeff Woods and Ken Whitehouse have details at the CP:

Authorities said they charged each of the seven who were removed from the committee room with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

Witnesses said they believed that the protesters were affiliated with the groups "Chattanooga Organized for Action" and "Progressive Student Alliance." The students are from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and the University of Memphis.

At first Capitol police asked the protesters to leave. But when they would not comply some were forcibily removed after having attempted to link arms and remain in the room. One witness said they "played dead," not offering resistance to law enforcement but still forcing them to have to be carried out.
