Capitol Police under fire for stopping children's choir from singing national anthem.

Capitol Police stopped a children's choir from singing the national anthem in the U.S. Capitol due to a miscommunication about permission for musical performances. The choir had approval from the House speaker, but officers were unaware of this. The police initially claimed that the performance was stopped because it might be found offensive, but later issued a statement apologizing for the miscommunication. The incident has sparked controversy and disappointment among lawmakers and choir leaders.
