About this object
In its first two centuries, the U.S. House of Representatives faced a handful of major security threats, but few, if any, have had the magnitude or the repercussion of 9/11. Hear how the U.S. Capitol Police Force coordinated the response to the attacks, and how security around the Hill changed in the months that followed.
