Message from the Guild President and Chief Steward: Events at the Capitol on January 6

Colleagues,

We are horrified and outraged by the violent events that occurred yesterday in the Capitol, on Capitol Hill, and across our city.

The Guild is committed to the health and safety of all staff in the Library of Congress. If you have any questions or concerns, need assistance or additional information—especially those scheduled to report to the Madison, Jefferson or Adams Buildings—please reach out to us. We are here for you, and to ensure that the mission of the Libraryto preserve our principles of democracy and our society is upheld through the safeguarding of the people who do the work of the institution.

Solidarity,

Anne Toohey
Guild President

David Fernández-Barrial
Guild Chief Steward
