Protestors entered the United States Capitol building as the House and Senate are voting to certify the 2020 presidential election.
Following a “Save America” rally featuring President Trump, protestors marched from the White House Elipse in Washington, D.C. to the U.S. Capitol and breached security barriers. Footage from reporters inside the Capitol now shows that protestors have made their way into the building.

Protesters have charged the Capitol and have surrounded the Senate chamber. They have asked us to stay inside.
