Amid Busy Legislative Week, Oklahoma Delegation Helps Honor Capitol Police With A Meal
A week that started with a formal and somber tribute to their fallen brother ended with smiles and full bellies, thanks in part to a member of the Oklahoma congressional delegation.
Second District Congressman Markwayne Mullin knew officer Billy Evans, who was killed three weeks ago when a man hit him with a car as he rammed the barricade outside the Capitol. Rep. Mullin said he also knew officer Brian Sicknick, who died from injuries sustained in the January 6 insurrection. I mean, they’ve lost two of their own, and that’s tough, said Rep. Mullin Friday in an interview. So, there’s a group of us, several of us members that said, Why don’t we just feed them all , and it was just a gesture of kindness that goes a long way for these guys.
