Lawmakers' security expands as Capitol Police cut
Sen. Andrew Brock, R-Davie, said recent protests that interrupted House proceedings reinforce the need for upgraded security to protect lawmakers, staff and visitors alike.
"If you compare our building to other government buildings around, where they have a photo identification system, take your picture, put it on a sticker (and) visitors wear a badge, we don't have that here," Brock said.
Really, people walk in and out the Nature and NC museum without id everyday, with out be search…
Brock is just carrying the party idiocy ideology. Which has been proven they only care about themselves.True they should have full time protection, that is if they were a full time Legislators, which they are not. The Capital police protect those what are full time in Raleigh..
Miseem had this to say, Let's see. Cut State Capitol police by 2 million, cutting 20 jobs. Add 3 million to legislative "protection". Wonder who will get the contracts and how many positions it will take.
However I do agree with ProudBlackSingleMother, So they want to restrict access to the building to keep the minions out? Sounds like a scam to me... they should not get that 2mil... it should be returned to the citizens that actually pay taxes.
That is it they want to restrict who can sit and watch,they want to keep the watch dogs out of the galleries.. They want to keep the citizens of NC in the dark.. I sure Tillis would love to Block Rev. Barber from the Gallery…
