WASHINGTON—Some 100 police officers from New York have arrived in Washington to help the U.S. Capitol Police with security for President Joe Biden’s State of the Union.

At least five buses transported the officers to the nation’s capital, where they were sworn in at the Capitol Police headquarters, an officer who declined to be named told Epoch Media Group.
