Fence to be installed around Capitol building for potential Freedom Convoy protests

A fence will be placed around the Capitol building next week ahead of President Joe Biden‘s State of the Union address in advance of a potential “Freedom Convoy” trucker protest.

U.S. Capitol Police and the Secret Service have been “working together” to plan for extra security measures after receiving reports about a potential protest on March 1, according to a statement from the Capitol Police. As part of increased security measures, a fence will be installed.
