Fence Around Washington’s Capitol Comes Down

OLYMPIA, Wash. -The fencing around the Washington State Capitol Complex in Olympia was removed Tuesday morning.

The Department of Enterprise Services reports the order restricting public access to portions of the campus is no longer in place, and that threat level has been lowered by the Washington State Patrol.

The fence was initially installed in January, just a few days after a group of Trump supporters breached the gates to the Governor's Mansion in Olympia, and the same day the pro-Trump mob stormed the U.S. capitol.
