Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser said on Jan. 11 that Americans shouldn’t travel to her city to take part in the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20.
“We are all focused on preparing for the upcoming presidential inauguration. Our goals right now are to encourage Americans to participate virtually and to protect the District of Columbia from a repeat of the violent insurrection experienced at the Capitol and its grounds on January the 6th.” Bowser, a Democrat, told reporters at a press conference.
