Hence the reason for my starting this thread. I wanted people to be clear as to what they would and would not be able to do when they came to Washington. Many people who can reschedule their trips may prefer to do so.

Those who cannot reschedule should at least know what the alternatives are that are open, even if they are, by and large, second best.

The Capitol is effectively closed to tourists (unless you know a congress member who is willing to show you around).

The Library of Congress is closed.
