- <p> Senators can run, but they can't hide from Martha Pope.
- Taking over last week as the first female sergeant at arms of
- the U.S. Senate, Pope, 45, has the power of arrest to aid her
- in rounding up absent members--wherever they may be--and
- bringing them to the floor for a vote. She also manages a $120
- million budget, heads the board overseeing the 1,300-strong
- Capitol Police Force and is responsible for enforcing rules and
- maintaining decorum in the Senate. Jokes Pope, whose first job
- on the Hill was as receptionist for ex-Senator Gary Hart: "I
- started out answering phones, and it may still be my only
- marketable skill."
