Hi there,
Just after the 6-month anniversary of the insurrection, members of Congress still fear for their lives at work. Capitol Police are now setting up field offices on both coasts to keep lawmakers safe in their districts.
There's a good reason for these lawmakers to be afraid: Members of Congress are facing twice as many violent threats as they did just last year. In January, we saw with our own eyes that the country can't afford to look the other way, especially not when hundreds of the Capitol's attackers still roam free.
These new efforts aren't just about protecting Congress. They're about protecting our democracy and every one of us.
January 6 was a tragedy, but our response could be the start of a new era where we give our democratic institutions the support they need.
So, please, tell us:
Should we protect elected officials from right-wing militants?
We're glad to have you standing with us,
Progressive Majority
