WASHINGTON — Exactly two years ago, on Jan. 6, 2021, the work of the U.S. Congress was ground to a halt by a violent mob seeking to stop the certification of President Joe Biden’s electoral victory. After blowing past police barricades, rioters forced their way into the Senate chamber chanting “hang Mike Pence” and sending lawmakers scrambling for safety underground.

WASHINGTON — Congresswoman-elect Harriet Hageman arrived at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday prepared to be sworn in as the newest member of Wyoming’s Congressional delegation. Dressed in her signature “gothic cowgirl” attire and joined by her husband, John Sundahl, and family members, Hageman was set to replace Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who Wyoming voters ousted last year, in the 118th Congress.
