Pelosi’s Security Team: ‘Congress Must Immediately Fund…Mobile Fencing’ for U.S. Capitol
The “task force” of advisors that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) put together after rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 has recommended that Congress immediately approve funding to design and install “mobile fencing” around the Capitol.
As of now, the area of Washington, D.C. where the Capitol sits is surrounded with a seven-foot high chain-link fence topped with razor wire.
“The current temporary fence surrounds such a tremendous area that it requires significant personnel resources to monitor its entire length,” the advisors said in their report.
“As the fencing comes down, we recommend it be replaced with a mobile fencing option that is easily erected and deconstructed and an integrated, retractable fencing system in the long term to secure both the Capitol Building and Congressional office buildings,” said the group’s report.
Next up? Proposed name change. Old name: United States Capitol Building New Name: Kremlin
Prescient in that Kremlin in Russian means "fortress inside a city"
