On January 13, 2021, the Capitol Steps announced via Twitter that they would be shutting

Der Gruppenname ist eine Anspielung auf den früheren Kongressabgeordneten John Jenrette, der bei einer nächtlichen Sitzung des Kongresses eine Sitzungspause zum Sex mit seiner Frau auf den Stufen des Kapitols nutzte und damit einen Skandal auslöste.
