Longtime GOP Rep. Brady Won’t Seek Reelection
Rep. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) said on April 14 that he won’t seek reelection in 2022, after serving in the U.S. House since 1997.
“I am retiring as your congressman. This term, my 13th, will be the last,” Brady, the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, told the Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce in Houston.
“I set out to give my constituents the representation you deserve, the effectiveness you want, and the economic freedom you need. I hope I delivered. It’s a remarkable privilege to work for you in the U.S. House of Representatives.”
Part of fencing perimeter comes down around White House
Part of the fencing perimeter that has been around the White House complex since President Donald Trump was in office was removed on Wednesday morning.
CNN observed crews taking down metal fencing that had been around the perimeter of the White House complex for months. Not all of the fencing was removed and most of the area remains closed to the public.
The fencing, which was reinforced with concrete barriers, was put in place on January 13, a week after the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol, which resulted in enhanced security at the White House and US Naval Observatory, where the vice president resides. Five people, including a Capitol Police officer, were killed when Trump supporters stormed and breached the US Capitol on January 6.
