North Dakota "Freedom Convoy" reaches Washington D.C.

(Bismarck, ND) -- North Dakota's Freedom Convoy of semis is now in the Washington, DC area. The truckers are protesting vaccine mandates.  

The trucks are gathered outside the city, because semis aren't allowed within Washington, DC limits. The group met Monday with Congress members Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia and Matt Gaetz from Florida.

Members of the convoy say they are prepared to stay for as long as eight weeks if needed to get legislation started that will end the Emergencies Act and allow people to use experimental pharmaceuticals to treat COVID-19.
