History

It was established in 1951 by former New Jersey Congressman James C. Auchincloss, who with 100 other members formed the club, which is now "one of the most popular gathering spots in Washington for lawmakers, government officials and other members of the political establishment."[2]

The club is a distinct and separate organization from the Republican National Committee and has no official affiliation to the committee or the party.[3]

The Capitol Hill Club is located at 300 First St SE on Capitol Hill in southeastern Washington 20003, less than two blocks from the United States Capitol and across from the Capitol South Metro station. It is the former home of John S. McCain Jr. and Roberta McCain.[4]

On January 6, 2021, during the attack on the U.S. Capitol, a pipe bomb was placed outside the club by an unknown person.[5][6]
