Has anyone heard mention if the crowd is still outside the Capitol Bldg?

I don't want to switch from CSPAN to check the MSM news.

They are going into a 'whip' meeting, at 11:30. Participants were invited to go to the meeting, or stay on the floor. Everyone is requested to be back by 12:30 for what I think will be an update about what happens next.
