The Capitol Police have notified congressional lawmakers that they can welcome visitors to their offices. But guests must follow certain security measures beyond just walking through metal detectors at the buildings’ entrances, as was the case previously.
According to an administrative memo sent to all members’ offices on Wednesday from acting Sergeant-at-Arms Timothy Blodgett, the area will reopen for official business visitors starting on Monday at the Capitol and on Thursday at the House office buildings.
This is the first step to begin opening the Capitol to visitors since the pandemic shut down the complex to the public last year and the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol itself forced the Capitol Police to boost security measures.
