Hayden Haynes, Chief of Staff to U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, was arrested for DUI late Tuesday night after crashing into a parked vehicle at the Capitol. The incident occurred around 11:40 p.m., shortly after President Donald Trump’s address to Congress.
According to the U.S. Capitol Police, Haynes backed into a Capitol vehicle and was taken into custody. NBC News reported that he was cited and later released with a court summons. Speaker Johnson, who presided over the House session following Trump’s speech, acknowledged the incident and expressed "full faith and confidence" in Haynes.
