WASHINGTON, DC 20510-7218

January 5, 2021

Event: Joint Session of Congress-Electoral College Vote Certification

Operational Period: Sunday, January 3, 2021 through Saturday, January 9, 2021

Overview: (Special Event Assessment; 2 I-A-0468 v3 January 3, 2021 Final)

On Wednesday, January 6, 2021, the I 17th United State Congress will gather for a joint session
in the chamber of the House of Representatives to certify the counting of the electoral votes. The
President of the Senate, Vice President of the United States (VPOTUS) Michael Pence, is the
presiding officer. If a senator and a representative jointly submit an objection, each would retire
to its chamber to consider it. The President and Vice President must achieve a majority of
electoral votes (i.e., at least 270 votes) to be elected. In the absence of a majority, the House
selects the President, and the Senate selects the Vice President.

Expected Protests Overview:


A number of individuals and groups are calling for their supporters to travel to Washington, DC,
on or before January 6, 2021, to show support for POT US and for overturning the election
results. The protests/rallies are expected to be similar to the previous Million MAGA March
rallies in November and December 2020, which drew tens of thousands of participants. It is also
expected that members of the Proud Boys (who intend to wear plainclothes and not their
traditional yellow and black clothing)l3, white supremacist groups,14 Antifa, and other
extremist groups will rally on January 6, 2021. Multiple arrests were made as a result of clashes
between pro-Trump and opposing groups during each of the November and December rallies.
Charges included assault with a dangerous weapon, assault on police, simple assault, weapons
violations, riotous acts, and destruction of property, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and
crossing a police line. A number of law enforcement officers were injured in the skinnishes .
. Many of the confrontations occurred after the rallies ended.

Communications:

Main Ops 2

Mission Objectives:

I. To provide an environment in which lawful first amendment activity can be safely


demonstrated.

2. To prevent any adverse impact to the legislative process associated with unlawful
demonstration activity.

3. To effectively mitigate actions associated with civil disorder; safely respond to crimes of
violence and destruction/defacing of property.

4. To safeguard and prevent any property damage directed at the US Capitol, West Front
Inaugural Platfonn, and all Congressional buildings.

5. Establish and maintain a fixed march route while excluding access to counter-protestors
to minimize potential for violent interactions.

Deployment strategies for CDU assets will include monitoring demonstration/protest activity
and providing timely response to address and mitigate any threats posed. CDU Requirements; 4
Hard Platoons; less than lethal options to be deployed will include FN-303 and the PepperBall
launcher systems; each provide chemical irritant capability and impact energy to address crowd
dispersal requirements and/or to address violent offenders behavior.

Legislative Considerations:

The Department has not received fonnal notification of any Leadership, Members or Senators
participating in protest activity. Any participating member is subject to similar enforcement
action prescribed to all participants; infonnation is provided for protective operations and
Member security as outlined in USCP mission.

Actions taken by Congressional members inside of the Congressional buildings may be


considered part of their official duties; as such, the on scene supervisor will consult with the
Field Force Commander and the OGC before taking any enforcement actions.

CDU Ac1ion Plan: Joint Session-Electoral College Vole Cenifica1ion


The US Senate is expected to be in session during this operational period (excluding Sunday).
DPD will provide infomiation related to Senate Leadership that may require CDU consideration.

The US House is expected to be in session during this operational period (excluding Sunday).
DPD will provide inforn,ation related to House Leadership that may require CDU consideration.

USCP Legal Team: The OGC poc is Mr. Tad DiBiase; 202.631.4532; OGC will be on-call for
this event on Sunday and on site as needed. Mr. Aaron Wilensky will be on site with an SOD
commander for January 6, 2021 events.

COVID Precautions as outlined by the Pandemic Working Group (PWG):

• Most importantly mask should/must be worn at all times. They may be removed if
actively eating or drinking, but this should occur socially distant. Officers should be
encouraged to not eat/take breaks in groups where masks are off and social distance is
difficult (restaurants, break rooms, etc).
• The Squad Sergeants should ensure all members of their squad have all of the proper
PPE ... masks, gloves, sanitizer. Identify the Officers with N95 masks in case sick
arrestees are encountered.
• All briefings related to these operations, roll call or otherwise, should be held virtually or
by squad. Grouping everyone together should be avoided when possible, especially for
staging or administrative reasons. We realize CDU operations in the field on the "line"
must occur; which is why isolating by squads helps is contain potential exposures to a
smaller group.
• While officers are staged, social distancing will need to be strictly enforced and masks
should be worn at all times unless the officers are actively eating or drinking.
• AU COVID procedures for medically screening 61D detainees and/or custodial
arrests need to be followed. in regards to exterior pens/interview lines for 61 D arrests,
to the extent possible, there should be enough space to allow for 6 feet of space between
prisoners during each stage of the process. Prisoners will be given a mask and directed to
don it if they are not in possession of a mask.
• If buses are used to transport and stage officers during CDU operations, occupancy
should be limited to I squad at a time. The bus driver should be supplied with antiseptic
wipes that can be distributed to officers as they board so they can sanitize their seating
areas. Masks should be worn at all times unless actively eating or drinking.
• It is very important that processing prisoners through the 61 D process eliminates the
need for prisoner transports and the need for subsequent disinfection of transport
vehicles. This will save time and reduce exposure to the public and employees
• If 67 K is used to house prisoners and their numbers do not allow for adequate social
distancing within the garage, they may need to be staged in pens outside (similar to the
6I D process). Masks, hand sanitizer, and other appropriate PPE should be readily
available.
• If USCP HQ is used to house prisoners, only 5 of them could be held in prisoner
processing at one time. The remaining prisoners would need to be staged in pens outside

CDU Action Plan: Joint Session-Electoral College Vote Ccnification


of USCP HQ (similar to the 61 D process) or elsewhere within the building to allow for
adequate social distancing. Masks, hand sanitizer, and other appropriate PPE should be
readily available. (Bike racks arc available at HQ)
• SOD has coordinating with PAMD to ensure sufficient PPE and hand sanitizer remain
available. OD TO ENSURE TEMPGUN IS DI Pl OYI D \\.If 11 IR''\\ '1 II I

Event site commander will assess incident and determine if within USCP capabilities; otherwise,
DC Fire/EMS will be notified in the event protestors link themselves together or to fixed objects
with chains. USCP will attempt to address any subjects who zip-tie themselves or handcuff
themselves to another person(s) or item.

DC Department of Public Works will be contacted for relocating any vehicles that pose a risk or
adversely impact this event; notification through the JOCC or direct line 202.737.4404; USCP
will need to ticket vehicle.

Use of Force (USCP Directive 1020.004)

All officers and supervisors will follow the Department's Use of Force policy. Unless exigent
circumstances justify immediate action, officers will not independently make arrests or employ
force without command authorization.

For this event the CDU Field Force Commander will have the primary responsibility to authorize
less than lethal options; exigent circumstances will dictate other lawful deployment of less than
lethal options. Observed illegal actions will be documented over the radio, an announcement of
a declared unlawful assembly with civil disorder will be announced and notification to officers
will be provided of the pending deployments.

Jmpact rojectiles will not be fired indiscriminately into crowds.

CDU Ac1ion Plan: Join1 Session-Elccloral College Vote Certification


Rcpo11ing requirements for Use or Force events will be completed by employees and L <;( f'
witnesses prior to release for their tour or duty; as in all cases, the Watch Commandcr will he

events a they occur.

n any circumstancc in which an officer physically controls anx art1cipants (marcher s on


countcr-protcstors) use of force rotocol will be initiated.

Medical Care (USCP Directive 1020.004 Use of Force)

DC Fire will not be pre-staged on the Capitol Grounds for this event. FEMS has a command
post set up with USPP at District I . Notification through the USCP dispatch will be initiated for
a medical response. However, if warnings are initiated for chemical munition deployment DC
Fire is to be notified for response and staging. Additionally, the DC National Guard will stage a
HAZMAT response team in the area of Washington Monument.

The attending physician' s office will not be initiated for medical calls related to demonstration
activity for this event.

Officers and supervisors are required to obtain appropriate medical aid as soon as possible or
practical for individuals:

a. Who show signs of any injury as a result of use of force


b. Who complain of an injury as a result of use of force
c. Who become unconscious either during or following any use of force
d. When the officer or supervisor believes an individual is in need of medical evaluation as
a result of use of force

Appropriate medical aid may include increased observation to detect obvious changes in
condition, flushing OC spray from the eyes, applying first aid, evaluation by paramedics, or for
more serious or life-threatening incidents, immediate aid by medical professionals.

HMRT will be available for officer rehabilitation and related medical monitoring. HMRT will
manage mobile field force decontamination capabilities.

Crowd Management:

Each shift a designated SOD official will monitor for crowd surges or movements associated
with protest activity and will assign motors and scouts to allow for the safe passage of
pedestrians. USCP will take appropriate measures to obtain compliance with the protesters with
regards to using sidewalks and remaining off of the roadway to the extent possible. 1n the event
the protest group size exceeds our capability to obtain compliance, motors and scouts will create

CDU Action Plan: Joint Session-Electoral College Vote Ccnifica1ion


a "box" around the mobile protest group and will block approaching traffic to mitigate any
vehicle pedestrian collision.

SOD will initiate traffic cuts along the march facilitating access into Arca 15 Union Square from
3n1 Street W (Intelligence notes indicate there arc no planned marches. However, we should
anticipate participants marching from the Ellipse and National Mall at the conclusion of those
event ).

A platoons come in service they will respond 10 their designated areas of responsibility and
sweep areas for hazards to include construction material and other potentially dangerous
potential projectiles (ie bricks, stones, bottles, large branches, etc). Additionally, assigned
platoons will ensure the bike rack along Constitution Ave. and Independence Ave. are in place
correctly; to include pedestrian cutouts along the drives (bike rack is staged in those locations).

All counter-protestors will be relocated outside of the march perimeter (refer to map).

As countcr-prolcstors traverse Capitol Grounds, SOD motors will trail the respective groups.
Additionally, a they engage physical barriers (bike racks); Platoon Commanders will direct
additional resources from their platoons as needed; SOD to support maintaining the integrity of
the perimeter. Platoon Commanders need to be mindful o f locations without bike rack or
building structures serving as fixed barrier; countcr-protestors will be expected to attempt to gain
access by entering shrubbery and other natural fixtures. Platoon commanders will rapidly deploy
officers to stop and provide verbal direction for them 10 exit the crimcter and hysically remove
countcr-1Jrotcstors as needed. Platoon commanders will update USCP communications on
actions and observations related to crossing established barriers/police lines. Warnings will be
initiated _prior lo arrests.

based on crowd convergence. Assigned platoons will ensure the bike rack is put in place to
reinforce restricted access leading to the West Front; bike rack is staged outside Maryland Ave.
walkway and Pennsylvania Ave. walkway.

Emergency No Parking Request: Not requested for this operational period.

For this event it is anticipated that a march will likely progress into the Capitol Grounds from the
NW with an MPD escort. USCP SOD will coordinate the hand-off at Third Street and will
continue to provide a box around the march participants. Designated CDU platoons will move

CDU Action Plan: Joint Session-Electoral College Vote Ccnification


with the marchers; i f counter-protest groups are present the CDU teams will mirror the counter­
protest groups movements and will enforce a denial of entry into the designated march route and
destination (Area 15) the USCP is facilitating; SOD motors will support any march as well. For
this event we will OT facilitate a march around the US Capitol. Women For America will be
directed to assemble in Arca 15. If an allempl to march continues CDL md ScJI> 1 ill 1nil1 t'L c1

ensure pedestrian safety. Platoon commanders will discuss with event marshals their intended
destination and provide alternate options around the avenues.

In the event the protestors implement a road closure tactic the CDU commander will direct
sufficient CDU resources to establish a perimeter and monitor the crowd while attempts to
ascertain intent from event organizers is initiated by the assigned or responsible Platoon
commander. Arrests for incommoding and blocking passage will be determined by the IC in
consultation with the Field Force commander.

The CDU truck will remain operational and in-service during this operational period. Based on
intelligence and observed actions a need to pre-stage shields at strategic locations will be made.

Deployment Strategy:

Hard Platoons will pre-stage their protective gear in proximity to their staging locations (busses).
Hard platoon members and OSB CDU support will have access to their laser eyewear protection
on their person. The primary focus will be to maintain the security perimeter of the United
States Capitol and the security perimeter established for the march route entering US Capitol
Grounds from the NW with an arrival destination to the Area 15.

A deten11ination to don hard gear will be made daily; depending on the presence of counter­
groups and the reported interactions between the opposing groups.

Each platoon will have an arrest kit immediately available. Platoon commanders will have bull­
horns or vehicle pa systems immediately available to rovide warnings, give direction and to
facilitate crowd movement and egress.

The IC will record over the USCP radio documenting the establishment of any police lines.

SOD patrols will manage US Capitol monument/grounds security operations; for example The
Grant Memorial, Peace Memorial, Garfield Memorial, Taft Memorial, and surrounding
Congressional parks and gardens. SOD will have approximately 20 officers supporting
operations and routine.

CSS will be pre-deployed and ready to document as needed.

CERT will have deploy counter-sniper teams capable of monitoring events on the West and East
Front.

CDU Action Plan: Joint Session-Electoral College Vote Ccr1ification


I f the intended destination of the Women for America First is Arca 15 Union Square. In the
event of an attempted or anticipated West Front action; CDU squads will be deployed to
establish a police line using the excess bike rack al the west end of each walk-way. A police line
will be established prior to the walk-ways in order to utilize the existinSl Olmstead Wall as an
additional physical barrier to manage the crowd convergence. ThL l1111.: \\ ill h,._• l1cld ,n,1 ,IL:c,
will be denied to the West Front.

Squads a signed to the Plaza will be mindful of demonstration activity such as banner hanging
and will prevent allempts and/or direct the removal o f existing banncrs/signage (not including
hand-held).

Platoons as igncd to the East Front will monitor the crowd for criminal activity; ie open carry
fircam,s, concealed carry, assaults, etc. Members of Congress arc expected to speak at events in
area 8 and 9. CDU will support the safe movements of the Members o f Congress and work
directly with DPD in the event any leadership participate.

Additionally, less than lethal grenadiers will be pre-positioned to address crowd dispersal
requirements in the event ofan attempted breach of the East and West Front restricted area poses
an immediate risk to of ficers on the police line and the demonstrated potential for violence and
damage to property; in particular the lnaugural Platform.

The CDU Truck will pre-stage shields at key locations as determined on a daily basis.

Crowd Dispersal

Before ordering forced dispersal of a civil disturbance, the IC will consider lesser alternatives to
achieve order; ie containment and dialogue with event organizers.

Prior to forced dispersal the IC will ensure all potentially necessary law enforcement, fire and
EMS equipment and personnel are on hand to successfully carry out the tactical operation.
Additionally, the IC will announce on the USCP radio observed behaviors and will request the
CSS Documentation Team and will request the WC fix the security cameras on their location
prior to forced dispersal operations.

Crowd dispersal methodology will include verbal commands using amplification methods (ie
bull horn/PA system). In the event violent agitators are observed; and or a riot is declared the
CDU commander will notify communications as such and will initiate a warning to the violent
crowd; thereafter if compliance has not been achieved and the violence continues an order to
utilize the Pepperball and FN-303 systems may be issued. Non-direct and direct-fired munitions
from the systems will be deployed to disperse the crowd and to support efforts to effect arrests of
the violent agitator(s).

Violent agitators will be addressed with either the Pepper Ball system or the FN-303 for
purposes of immediately stopping their violent actions and for marking purposes for safe
apprehension attempts most likely by a designated armored-up arrest team. Officers equipped
with personal-carry Saber Red will utilize in accordance with Use of Force policy.

Mass Arrest: Arrests arc not anticipated for this event; as such mass arrests remains on standby
but all attempts to process ruTestccs in an exterior location will be made. Note, supervisors
should anticipate reports of assault and be prepared to assign officers to take the police report.

Al this time, the city has not identified any speci fic facility or location designed or designated to
secure a large number of arrestees outside of our normal arrest processing procedure.

Medical Plan:

DC Fire/EMS will not be staged on the Capitol Grounds for this event. Request for medical
services will be managed through USCP communications.
