Part of a convoy led by trucks rode through Washington, D.C. on Monday after more than a week of circling the nation’s capital to call for an end to the federal government’s COVID-19 emergency declaration, restrictions, and mandates.
It was the first time protesters of The People’s Convoy sought to enter the city since arriving in the area earlier this month. The U.S. convoy was inspired by trucker convoys in Canada that made global news headlines for protesting against COVID-19 restrictions. The procession started out in California on Feb. 23 and arrived in the Washington area on March 4.
