Some state capitols closed ahead of Inauguration Day. What s Idaho doing for security? Hayat Norimine and Ruth Brown, The Idaho Statesman
Jan. 20 While other states took precautionary measures by shutting down their capitol buildings, declaring emergencies and installing fencing, the Idaho Capitol Building will remain open on Inauguration Day and state officials have said little about what they expect this week.
The FBI sent out a memo to law enforcement agencies across the country, warning of potential for armed protests starting on Sunday through President-elect Joe Biden s inauguration on Jan. 20. Details remain murky, and Idaho Gov. Brad Little declined to answer specific questions about security at the Statehouse.
