Fortress Washington

摘要

In the days after the Jan. 6 insurrection, a 7-foot-high fence topped with coils of razor wire went up around the U.S. Capitol in Washington. It was described as a temporary measure to protect the seat of Congress for a month or longer. But on Jan. 28, Yogananda Pittman, the acting head of the U.S. Capitol Police, called for making the fence permanent, citing the need for "vast improvements" to security.
