WASHINGTON — Messages of support for Capitol Police officers poured in Tuesday after last week’s attack on the Capitol building.

Videos and pictures show hundreds of notes taped along the tunnel between the Capitol and House office buildings.

The effort was organized by the Committee on House Administration Republicans, according to CNN.

Some of the notes are signed by lawmakers, staffers, community members and other law enforcement agencies.
