TENNESSEE (WATE) — The Tennessee National Guard will be sending support to our nation’s Capitol next week for President-elect Joe Biden’s Inauguration.
A spokesperson for the Tennessee National Guard says they received a request for additional personnel to support the Washington D.C. National Guard.
This, in the wake of the deadly riots at the capitol last week.
Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will take the Oath of Office from the Capitol’s West Front, which is one of the locations where a violent mob overpowered police and stormed the building.
