Ohio congressmen take issue with U.S. Capitol metal detectors; supported them in schools
*****
Three Ohio congressmen have reportedly taken issue with new metal detectors installed outside the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, objecting to increased security measures put in place after insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol building just a week ago.
All three of them Reps. Steve Stivers of Upper Arlington, Bob Gibbs of Lakeville and Bob Latta of Bowling Green previously supported efforts to install metal detectors in school buildings as a method of preventing school violence.

2018, all three representatives voted for the Students, Teachers, and Officers Preventing (STOP) School Violence Act. Stivers was also a co-sponsor for the bill.

The bill would have also allocated grant funding for school districts to install metal detectors and other deterrent measures, according to a summary of the legislation.
