It is a busy Monday on Capitol Hill as lawmakers react to President Joe Biden withdrawing from his reelection campaign and the Secret Service chief testifying in front of Congress..

Our Washington Bureau Chief Alex Cameron spoke with News 9 at 9 about the state of Washington, D.C., as he covers recent events.

The House Oversight Committee is holding a hearing on Monday to address the Secret Service’s failure to provide adequate security at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, where former President Donald Trump was shot.

Cameron said that in her opening remarks, she said she admits they did not provide adequate security.

“We know that the chairman of the committee is going to be calling for her to resign. We’re already hearing that from a lot of our members from the Oklahoma delegation as well,” Cameron said.

He said the hearing could last as long as six hours and could get very heated as the chief is questioned.

Also, on Monday, Cameron said the Capitol is buzzing after Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 election and endorsed his Vice President, Kamala Harris, as the Democratic nominee.

“There were lots of speculation out there about which Democrats might stand up and throw their hat in the ring and so far no one else has, so we’ll be watching to see if that happens,” Cameron said.

Cameron said several other contenders have been floated, but they are most likely being considered for her Vice President position.

“So far, it looks like she’s going to be the nominee, but she’s working the phone; she’s made it clear she wants to earn this nominee. She’s talking to democratic delegates right now,” Cameron said.

Cameron said she could hit the campaign trail as soon as Tuesday, but in the meantime, he will be looking for comments from other politicians who could endorse her.

“Here in DC, looking for people like former speaker Pelosi, former President Obama, whether they get behind and actually formally endorse her, something they haven’t done just yet,” Cameron said.
