Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) will receive the first dose of the two-dose COVID-19 vaccine today at 5:00 p.m. at the House of Representatives and hold a media availability afterwards. Members of Congress, to ensure continuity of government, are receiving the COVID-19 vaccine beginning today, and I will get my first dose today as well at 5:00 p.m., Norton said. I hope to set an example, encouraging my constituents to trust the science, as I do, that has given us this feat of modern medicine, and I urge them to follow my example by getting the vaccine at the earliest opportunity. I am now working to ensure a smooth distribution of this life-saving vaccine to my constituents as soon as possible. Norton will hold a media availability afterwards at her Capitol Hill office (2136 Rayburn House Office Building).
