Chief Manger Statement on the Capitol Police Emergency Assistance Act of 2021
December 22, 2021
"This year we created a new contingency plan to coordinate on-site law enforcement assistance from partnering agencies. The Department is grateful for the additional safety measure provided by the Capitol Police Emergency Assistance Act, which we fought for. It is not a responsibility we take lightly. The Department is grateful for the support the National Guard, as well as our federal, state and local law enforcement partners provide the National Capitol Region." -U.S. Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger
