The spokeswoman, Ashley Phelps, told
Roll Call that the 123 workers include 46 Capitol Police employees, 42 Architect of the Capitol employees, and 35 contractors doing the renovation on the Cannon Building. And as of Monday, there are more than 20 Capitol Police employees on paid administrative leave.
But despite the virus reaching the highest levels of government, Capitol Hill still lacks a comprehensive testing program for all workers. Testing and tracing are offered, but not required, for anyone who thinks they may have been exposed to the virus."
Complete and utter bloody failure. Our government continues to fail the American people at every turn. Now no new stimulus deal after months of petty bickering and those jackasses taking repeated breaks and vacations in the middle of it. And now the President thinks he can wave it over the populace's head like a carrot IF they vote him back in office!?!? We can't even manage testing and contract tracing at Capitol Hill or the WH? It's like a 3rd world country. We are spiraling downward. This is just exposing the absolute rot at the core. Complete and utter incompetence with the elite sucking at the government teat for all it's worth while the rest are left out in the cold. Despicable.
