Lawmakers vent at hearing over lack of clarity for who oversees Capitol Hill security
CNN
Months after the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol, Rep. Barry Loudermilk, a Republican from Georgia, made clear that confusion remains over who ultimately oversees Capitol Hill security.
During a hearing in front of the House Administration Committee on Thursday, Loudermilk asked the United States Capitol Police Inspector General Michael Bolton who has oversight of the Capitol Police Board, the panel to which the Capitol Police chief reports. "I do not know that, sir," Bolton replied. He added that reviewing the Capitol Police Board is not under his purview.More Related News
