Capitol Hill correspondents are objecting to restrictions being considered that would limit press access during the upcoming impeachment trial of President Donald Trump
Under consideration is a plan that would place reporters in a “pen” as senators enter and exit the chamber, a contrast to a more free-wheeling atmosphere on Capitol Hill in which reporters often gather around lawmakers to get their comments.
Wire also wrote that the standing committee also had sought an exemption to a rule to allow for reporters to bring laptops in the chamber. But that looks unlikely. That will force journalists who want to report breaking news developments to exit the chamber and into the press gallery, where electronics are allowed, only to have to face security again when returning to the chamber.
The impeachment trial will be televised, but there will be moments when the Senate will go into closed session, Sen. Roy Blunt , the chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, told reporters on Tuesday, according to. The Senate Sergeant at Arms and the Capitol Police are implementing the new procedures as a security precaution, according to Roll Call, although Blunt also said that lawmakers had concerns over being able to navigate hallways crowded with media.
