Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser has outlined a list of proposed recommendations aimed at securing the nation’s capital in the wake of Wednesday’s Capitol Hill siege for when President-elect Joe Biden takes the oath of office on Jan. 20.
“I strongly urge the United States Department of Homeland Security to adjust its approach to the Inauguration,” she wrote in a letter addressed to acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf. “The requests outlined here — if issued swiftly and communicated broadly — are essential to demonstrating our collective resolve in ensuring the Constitutional transition of power.”
