On January 6, 2025, Congress will certify the electoral votes in a process designated as a National Special Security Event (NSSE) due to heightened concerns following the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. This designation allows the U.S. Secret Service to lead security efforts, deploying significant resources to ensure safety during the proceedings. Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington, D.C., requested this increased security, which will include enhanced fencing, additional law enforcement, and the potential mobilization of the D.C. National Guard. The FBI will also monitor threats in the lead-up to the event, reflecting a comprehensive approach to prevent disruptions. Previous investigations into the January 6 riot have underscored the need for such precautions, as over 1,500 individuals have faced charges related to that day. The upcoming certification is particularly sensitive due to ongoing political tensions, with former President Trump alleging election fraud and threatening legal action against perceived wrongdoers.
