Hundreds More Bus Permits Requested for Day of Women's March Than Inauguration Day

About nine times more permits to park tour buses in D.C. have been requested for the day of the Women's March on Washington than on Inauguration Day, according to a D.C. councilmember.

Councilmember Charles Allen told News4 about 200 permits were requested for the inauguration on Friday, Jan. 20. The city has received about 1,800 permits for the following day, Jan. 21, when thousands are expected to attend the Women's March on Washington in protest of President-elect Donald Trump.

And I will bet good money that there will be far less cleanup needed after the march.

Since it's on a Saturday the GOP can't much obfuscate it but I wonder if the incoming will do something to take the coverage away.
