Law enforcement in Washington, DC, is implementing extensive security measures ahead of Inauguration Day to ensure the safety of attendees and protect the nation's capital. The Secret Service is spearheading these efforts, with plans to erect over 30 miles of fencing for the event, marking the most significant security operation in the agency's history.
Anticipating approximately 250,000 ticketed guests and demonstrators in downtown DC, officials are preparing for a large-scale event. To bolster security, around 25,000 law enforcement and military personnel will be deployed, supported by 7,800 National Guard members and nearly 4,000 officers from across the US.
