Second lawmaker in Capitol lockdown tests positive for COVID-19
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A second Democratic member of the House who was forced to go into lockdown during last week's violent siege at the Capitol has tested positive for COVID-19.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal of Washington says she has tested positive.
She criticized Republican members of Congress who declined to wear a mask when it was offered to them.
Some members of Congress huddled for hours at a secure location, while others were in the room for a shorter period.
Jayapal says too many Republicans have refused to take the virus seriously.
She's calling for fines for lawmakers who don't wear a mask at the Capitol.
