Minnesota shootings prompt Congressional security review for families

The weekends of the Minnesota project were deeply called the members of the House of Representatives and the Senate.

the reason?

“Minnesota was upset because” the suspect “went after the family,” said one of the members of the House of Representatives who faced threats and asked not to reveal his identity. “We have gone 50 percent of time. There are no longer lines.”

There is a summary at the Senate level on the security of members today. Republicans in the House of Representatives received a hypothetical summary late Saturday afternoon. Democrats in the House of Representatives will get a distant briefing tomorrow.

The question is what can congress security officials do to maintain the safety of the organs?

One of the ideas was to force the Speaker of parliament on Mike Johnson (R-La) to allow member offices to more flexibility to use funds-which is allocated to operate each office-as an additional safety procedure. Fox was told that this could enable individual offices to use full -time preventive details.

“Then they do not need to give us more money,” said a member of the House of Representatives.

One of the Democrats applauded the American Capitol police. But he pointed out that it was physically impossible for USCP to protect all members and their families around the clock throughout the week – in Washington and in their countries or their regions.

It was also indicated to Fox that there was no information about the archers who conducted two of the most violent episodes that included legislators in recent years. This includes the shooting of baseball in Congress in 2017 and the shooting of former MP Gabriel Jeffords (De Areez) in 2011.

One of the legislators told Fox: “We must be proactive alone.” “Not the reaction.”

Fox was also told that there was also a discussion about cleaning the personal information of the web or agreeing to anti -dxxing legislation.

MP Jared Moskovic roams the House of Representatives for a “secret session” to discuss the appropriate approach to Congress security. Such a decision to transfer the House of Representatives to a secret session that needs to be voted. It is also distinctive – which means that Moskovic can impose the case. Or, the council can vote to direct it. Employees should be signed within the right session.

The House of Representatives has not made a secret session since 2008 – and six of this only in the history of the Republic. Moskowitz would like to obtain members of the voting record against a secret security session. If they oppose it, the legislators are not entitled to the right to complain. Otherwise, he believes that they can actually discover a way to keep his colleagues from the members and their families. Many legislators with whom they spoke at the weekend said that the problem is that there is no consensus on how or what members want or if the Capitol police in the United States-based on what Congress devoted to that administration-has been guaranteed to ensure the safety of family members in 435 distant provinces.

Moreover, security officials and those in a phone call from the Republican Party on Saturday told Fox that there are many criticisms by members about the current security position – of those who do not benefit from the current programs designed by the House of Representatives and USCP to maintain the safety of members.

“They want to file a complaint a lot,” said one of the Republican sources.
