Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger took the helm of the strained Capitol Police department today, pledging to improve retention amid an exodus of personnel after a tragic year
Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger took the helm of the strained Capitol Police department Friday, pledging to improve retention amid an exodus of personnel after a tragic year.
Manger will have to stem the tide of officers looking for the exit and also shape the department into a force that attracts new recruits. Acting USCP Chief Yogananda Pittman and six other top officials received votes of no confidence from the department union in February regarding their ability to lead the force after the Jan. 6 insurrection. At least one, Chad Thomas, has since left the force.
Top appropriators in the Senate are still working on an emergency spending bill that they hope can avert a devastating funding gap that they’ve warned could result in furloughs of officers. The department has already delayed the purchase of critical protective equipment, including ballistic helmets, respirators and "hard gear" used during civil disturbances.
