Suspicious Mailings Targeting Public Officials Alert Sent Out On Capitol Hill

Suspicious Mailings Targeting Public Officials Alert Sent Out On Capitol Hill

Last week, when this notice was first sent to Congressional Staff, I typed up a post about it, but it turns out I forgot to hit post, so it was sitting in my drafts. Since we received this notice and it went out, we have seen a high number of offices, across the political spectrum, being targeted by these white powder letters. These letters are being sent not only to their DC Offices but also their district offices. 

 

The notice went out on Thursday, and as of Monday, October 19th, over 30 Congressional Offices have reported receiving letters, with the House being particular targets. Initially, it looked like Democratic Offices were the target, with over 20 Democratic offices receiving letters on Friday; however, over the weekend, three GOP Senators and a couple of House Republicans have announced they received letters as well.  

 

These letters are still coming; this morning, Rep. Subramanyam's district office was evacuated after receiving a letter.

Thankfully, so far these letters do not appear to contain anything that could harm people. Letters sent to offices in DC are scanned offsite as part of the security protocols established after the anthrax attacks in 2001. Hopefully the people responsible for this are caught soon because this is ridiculous and does nothing to help anyone or any cause. There are so many people like myself who work for Congress and have the best interest of the American People in our hearts and minds, and these types of tactics really do affect us.
