DOA Secretary Mike Huebsch Makes the 9/11 Connection in Elevated Capitol Security Alert

Yeah, I suppose, with all those union thugs and outside agitators.

CAPITOL SECURITY TO REMAIN ELEVATED FOR ‘FORESEEABLE FUTURE’

DOA Secretary Huebsch said Friday security will remain elevated and access to the building somewhat limited for the “foreseeable future.” He said the general rule will be public access will be through the North and South Hamilton Street entrances or the King and State Street entrances, depending on events.

Access for Capitol staff and handicapped persons will be through the Martin Luther King (MLK) entrance. The East Washington and Wisconsin Avenue entrances will not be used. Media will be directed to the West Washington Avenue entrance for access to the building.

Persons entering through the public access areas will continue to have metal detection screening, another issue Huebsch said could continue beyond the current events. Huebsch noted that after 9/11, entry doors on the first floor of the Capitol were closed to public access and have remained that way since.

And here's the latest in a series of reality checks from Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain.
