Hotline: Rayburn Hostages FREE

Word just in from a staffer stuck in Rayburn: The emergency audio systems ("annunciators" in Hill parlance) in cong. offices have just alerted those in Rayburn that they are free to leave their office.

Here is the message from the USCP:

The Capitol Police have completed the search of the Rayburn Building and declared the building safe for normal activities.

All persons in the Rayburn Building may resume their respective routines and are able to move about freely, retrieve their cars from the garage, etc.

The patience displayed by those whose movement was restricted for this extended period was commendable and the Capitol Police express their most sincere appreciation to all concerned for their understanding.
