Before the pandemic, the Capitol campus--which includes the U.S. Capitol, House and Senate office buildings, and over 270 acres of grounds--was a lively, vibrant environment, where Americans from across the country and all walks of life could engage with members of Congress and their staff on the issues affecting them. For the past two years or so, however, meetings have only been taken on a 'by appointment' basis, and as a result Capitol Hill has been noticeably unoccupied for much of that time. In his letter, Bart drove home the point that Congress should re-open to the public, stating: "The country is reopening. Businesses are moving back to working in person, students have returned to the classroom, venues are hosting concerts and sporting events, the hospitality industry working to re-establish itself as a pillar of the economy, and Americas HVAC-R contractors are performing work essential to our economy as frontline workers as they have done throughout the pandemic. We believe that Congress, too, should re-open and put this chapter of history behind us. It will serve as a sign of strength to America: that we are moving on from two very difficult years and that we are ready to take on challenges of the future together."
