From a previous post:
36 CFR § 2.31 Trespassing, tampering and vandalism.
(a) The following are prohibited:
(1) Trespassing. Trespassing, entering or remaining in or upon property or real property not open to the public, except with the express invitation or consent of the person having lawful control of the property or real property.
DC law on the topic:
An individual (without legal authority) who enters or attempts to enter any public building or other property against the will of the lawful occupant or of the person lawfully in charge of the property or remains on the property against the will of the owner or lawful occupant, can be charged with this misdemeanor.
Entering an open-to-the-public space in a building is not trespassing. Entering the restricted space or any space against the orders of the legal authority over the building is.

"If you are certain of that, please post the text of the statute. I'd like to read it." sear
