FRANKFORT, Ky. — Gov. Andy Beshear announced increased security measures around the Kentucky State Capitol grounds in Frankfort on Friday, citing the breaching of the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters on Jan. 6.

In addition to an increased law enforcement presence, Beshear said areas near the Capitol will be closed on Sunday.

“There have been domestic terror threats against state capitols all over the United States. Our commitment is that what happened at the U.S. Capitol will not happen here,” Beshear said. “We have the commitment and participation of the Kentucky State Police, Frankfort Police and the Kentucky National Guard to ensure the safety of everyone in this area. There have been no requests for permits for gatherings at the Capitol in the coming days, so there are no gatherings or rallies that can or should be happening.”

The move comes days after an FBI bulletin warned of armed groups planning "violent protests" at capitol buildings in all 50 states. Around 100 heavily-armed protesters gathered in Frankfort on Jan. 9 during a joint session of the General Assembly.

In a written statement, Beshear acknowledged the Capitol's closure on Sunday may cause some inconvenience to some Kentuckians.

“We appreciate everyone’s understanding and your patriotism,” he said. “Domestic terror is never OK. We must stop it every time we see it, and we cannot let what we saw at the U.S. Capitol become a new normal for this country.”

Brig. Gen. Haldane Lamberton, Adjutant General of the Kentucky National Guard, said Kentucky National Guard soldiers’ involvement in the security effort has been approved.

“Gov. Andy Beshear has authorized the Kentucky National Guard to support the safety and security of the state Capitol grounds and surrounding area over the coming days,” he said in news release.

Kentucky State Police is also providing enhanced security presence in Frankfort, as Acting Commissioner Lt. Col. Phillip Burnett Jr. said the measures are necessary to protect both the public and state buildings.

“In order to protect all citizens, the Kentucky State Police provides security at the state Capitol. KSP has not received any requests or notifications of a rally. However, precautions have been put in place to ensure the safety of both the public and state buildings, and will be adjusted as needed,” Burnett said.
