GOP rep unveils bill to install weapons lockers so House employees can take guns to work in 'crime-ridden DC'
Fox News
Rep. Greg Steube introduced legislation that would allow congressional employees to carry weapons in self-defense to and from Capitol Hill and safely store them while at work.
In Washington, D.C., individuals are allowed by law to carry and use certain weapons for self-defense, including self-defense sprays, stun guns and concealed firearms. However, both D.C. and federal law prohibit individuals from carrying these weapons inside a federal building. Aaron Kliegman is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
As a practical matter, therefore, people who work in federal buildings generally can't carry concealed weapons with them on the way to and from work.
