Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has requested the preservation of the video footage, photos, police reports and arrest records from all House office buildings after pro-Palestinian protesters jammed Capitol Hill Wednesday.
The riot was organized by two pro-Palestinian Jewish groups — Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow. They gathered inside and outside the Cannon House Office Building Wednesday holding signs and yelling chants calling for a cease-fire in the Gaza-Israel war.
“By launching an insurrection in the Capitol complex, these actors caused elevators to be shut down, staircases and hallways to be blocked, exits to be made inaccessible, and official legislative business to be obstructed, putting members of Congress, their staffs and Capitol visitors at risk,” the letter said.
Reports said roughly 300 people were arrested during the protest. Three were charged with assault on a police officer during processing, according to the Capitol Police’s X page. In one post, she called Rep. Rashida Tlaib a “Hamas Caucus Leader” and said she was leading the riot. The Michigan Democrat, who is of Palestinian descent, was seen talking to some of the protesters.
