Speaker Pelosi, Take Down the Capitol Fence | Opinion On 2/19/21 at 2:00 PM EST
Speaker Nancy Pelosi s fence around the U.S. Capitol building is an eyesore, an insult to the American people and an embarrassment for the Unites States around the world.
At least one Democrat has been brave enough to do something about it. Washington D.C. delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton has introduced a bill titled No Fencing at the Capitol.
Delegate Holmes Norton says correctly that permanent fencing would send an un-American message to the nation and the world, by transforming our democracy from one that is accessible and of the people to one that is exclusive and fearful of its own citizens.
