Congress Boosts Security Amid Violence | JQJO

House Republicans propose a $30 million increase in security funding, driven by rising political violence. This follows the recent murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and other attacks on lawmakers. The funding, part of a stopgap government funding bill, would bolster existing member security programs and local law enforcement aid. The proposal comes amidst growing concerns among both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, with some adjusting public appearances due to safety fears. The bill's passage is uncertain.
