,mr4 ,ossoff7 submitted the following   
concurrent resolution2 which was        
referred to the ,committee on ,rules and
 ,administration  ,,concurrent          
,,resolution  ,recognizing the heroism  
of ,united ,states ,capitol personnel   

and journalists during the              
insurrectionist attack on the ,united   
,states ,capitol on ,january #f1 #bjba4 
,whereas ,january #f1 #bjba1 the day    
during which insurrectionists stormed   
the ,united ,states ,capitol 7referred  
to in this preamble as the ,capitol7 as 
,members of ,congress convened in a     
joint session to receive the votes of   
the ,electoral ,college1 will forever be
 remembered as an assault on democracy2 
,whereas many agencies1 including the   
,united ,states ,capitol ,police1 the   
,metropolitan ,police ,department of the
 ,district of ,columbia1 neighboring    
local law enforcement agencies1 and     
multiple ,federal agencies1 responded to
 the ,capitol and bravely engaged the   
attackers2 ,whereas1 despite the attack 
on the ,capitol1 ,members of ,congress  
later returned to the task of receiving 
the votes of the ,electoral ,college for
 ,president and ,vice ,president1       
thereby ensuring that democracy would   
prevail that day2 ,whereas ,members of  

,congress1 congressional staff1 ,capitol
 personnel1 and members of the media--  
7#a7 were at work inside the ,capitol as
 it was attacked2 and  7#b7 shared the  
experience of fearing for their safety  
as thousands of rioters surrounded and  
occupied areas of the ,capitol complex1 
including the ,rotunda1 ,statuary ,hall1
 and the ,senate ,chamber2 ,whereas the 
staff of the ,parliamentarian of the    
,senate acted quickly and selflessly to 
preserve the electoral vote             
certifications from theft or destruction
 by those attempting to prevent         
,congress from carrying out the         
constitutional duty of ,congress to     
receive the votes of the ,electoral     
,college2 ,whereas members of the       
,capitol custodial staff and ,restaurant
 ,associates staff have bravely shown up
 to work1 and maintained the standard of
 excellence set by such staff1 during a 
dangerous pandemic1 continuing to       
provide essential services to the       
congressional community2 ,whereas the   

dedicated staff of the ,architect of the
 ,capitol1 who care for and maintain the
 ,capitol1 immediately began working to 
repair the parts of the ,capitol that   
were damaged and vandalized during this 
tragic event2 ,whereas the people of the
 ,united ,states have already taken     
notice of the incredible and diligent   
work done by ,capitol personnel to care 
for and repair the building in the wake 
of the ,january #f attack1 including by 
sending thank you notes to the ,capitol 
custodial staff2 ,whereas journalists   
continued to report to the world what   
was happening even as those journalists 
were threatened1 chased1 surrounded1    
subjected to physical violence1 forced  
to shelter in place for hours1 and had  
their equipment stolen and destroyed by 
rioters2 ,whereas several members of the
 media were physically assaulted during 
the attack on the ,capitol1 including a 
photojournalist who1 once the press     
credentials of the photojournalist were 
noticed by attackers1 was thrown to the 

floor1 causing the photojournalist to   
fear for her life2 and ,whereas1 due to 
the work of journalists who persisted in
 covering and documenting the events of 
the day despite the danger those        
journalists faced1 the whole story of   
,january #f will be known3 ,now1        
therefore1 be it ,that the ,senate--    
7#a7 commends the service and           
professionalism of the personnel of the 
,united ,states ,capitol who1 under     
extraordinarily difficult circumstances1
 ensured ,congress was able to continue 
to operate and fulfill the              
constitutional obligations of ,congress2
 and  7#b7 expresses appreciation for1  
and solidarity with1 the women and men  
of the news media reporting on the work 
of ,congress1 even at risk to their own 
personal safety4
