Committee Asking For Feedback From Blocked Inaugural Attendees

By Marcus Gilmer in Miscellaneous on Jan 29, 2009 10:00PM

Were you one of the blue, silver or purple ticket-holders for last week's inauguration swearing-in ceremony for Barack Obama that was turned away from the gate? If so, the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies wants to hear from you, per our sister site DCist. Email them at feedback@jccic.senate.gov. In exchange, you'll receive a commemorative photo of the event. But don't bother trying to scam yourself a pic if you weren't a ticket-holder; they have lists with names to double-check, just like Santa.
