Hi friend,
“I did not know if I was going to make it to the end of that day alive.”
That's what Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said when she went live on Instagram to share her harrowing account of the attack on the Capitol. She made it very clear: She and her colleagues could have been murdered by the insurrectionists on January 6.
“It is not an exaggeration to say that many, many members of the House were nearly assassinated,” she said on the livestream.
Inauguration Day is finally here. While we're just as excited as you are to see Joe Biden and Kamala Harris sworn in, we're also nervous. Not only are there reports from the FBI that armed insurrectionists are planning violence for today, but there may also be threats waiting for members of Congress now that they're back from their break.
Should the Capitol boost security to ensure our democracy is kept safe today and in the future?
Thanks for taking the time to participate in our survey.
