Democratic lawmakers planned to rehang a controversial painting on Capitol Hill this morning that angered law enforcement groups with its depiction of police officers as pigs shooting unarmed people, after Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter personally took down the picture last week. 

Fox News reports a Monday press release from the Congressional Black Caucus and Democratic Rep. Lacy Clay, whose office for months had sponsored the display of the student artwork, announced that Clay and CBC members will “rehang” the piece Tuesday morning. 

Hunter personally unscrewed and removed the painting last Friday, saying he was angered by its depiction of law enforcement officers.

He said Lacy can put it back up but, “I’m allowed to take it down.”
