Congressmen may smoke in their own offices if they so desire. Here we have an example of a neighbor not communicating their objection in a collegial manner and working out a solution before making a big stink with the Capitol Police. Dear God, give me break! These children need to grow up and quit playing every incident to the media. Sorry Congressman Ellison, the buck stops with YOU. Don't lay this off on one of your staffers. If a staffer took it upon himself to generate this childish dispute, he should be disciplined. This is something that I would expect from the Republicans. I would want my Representative to be more adult.
