Earlier this week, D.

C Mayor Bowser and I met with them.

I told them how important this mission is and how proud I am of them.

I do not want these brave men and women to be in danger.

We want them back home safe, and we need them back to help with vaccinations and a lot of other duties that they have in our commonwealth.

But when they get home is dependent on those who would put them in danger by coming to our state capital or Washington with violent plans.

So I need everyone to listen very closely.

If you're planning to come here, are upto Washington with ill intent in your heart, you need to turn around right now and go home.

You're not welcome here, and you're not welcome in our nation's capital.

And if you come here and act out, Virginia will be ready.

Our law enforcement agencies, the state police, the city of Richmond police are Capitol police.
