    he “did not realize he would trigger a building alarm as he was rushing to make an urgent vote. The Congressman regrets any confusion.”

    huh?

          It was a coincidence that we were both naked and penetration occurred because of the fall, and continued for some time after.

              There are call buttons all over the capital, these buttons announce critical votes and do things like bring elevators faster. When I was a kid I used to push them all the time until someone saw me do it. I think that was behind his meaning.

                Well that would make more sense. Do the fire alarms resemble the other buttons that much? Seems like a design flaw.

                Also

                  I’m sure you can understand that these buildings are old and a lot of systems have been put in place later. So it’s not like anything is standardized. I was more on the Senate side, so couldn’t tell about the House.

                    That makes sense, but tbh it didn’t occur to me that, with the amount being spent on the military for instance, that someone hasn’t simply made sure that fire alarms in the US Capitol look like fire alarms, etc, so that you know for certain you’re calling for an elevator and not an evacuation.
