House Democrats unveil $1.9 billion bill to boost security after insurrection
By Niv Elis and Rebecca Beitsch - 05/14/21 01:15 PM EDT
The House on Friday unveiled a $1.9 billion supplemental appropriations bill to address security weaknesses laid bare in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
“The January 6 insurrection caused tragic loss of life and many injuries, while leaving behind widespread physical damage to the Capitol Complex and emotional trauma for Members, Congressional employees, and the Capitol Police,” said House Appropriations Committee Chair Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.).
“This emergency supplemental appropriation addresses the direct costs of the insurrection and strengthens Capitol security for the future. It is also long overdue recognition of the work of the Capitol Police, the sacrifices that they and their families have made, and the changes they need,” she added.
The ability of armed, pro-Trump rioters to breach the Capitol, overwhelm the Capitol Police force, break doors and windows, enter the House chamber and disrupt the certification of the 2020 presidential election on Jan. 6 shocked the nation.
Since then, Congress has held hearings to determine what went wrong.

Wow, democrats lock-step, demanding the injustice of a fraudulent election is noble and right, then they turn and say the invented crisis phony Capital crisis must have a proper lynching by a democrat heave investigation, whose outcome is already known to those not clueless. Invented crisis's to to force a change in a free Republican into an oppressive socialist regime, also followed by a Chinese virus plague to further end freedom and Republic. What are the odds the socialists are not trying to do in America what they did in Germany nearly a hundred years ago. The answer is embarrassingly obvious, frightening as well.
