President-elect Joe Biden’s inaugural celebration will be considerably smaller as organizers have canceled the parade that traditionally takes place after the ceremony.
In a U.S. Army email obtained by Jon Nicosia, participants were informed the event will no longer be happening.
“The Inaugural Parade has been canceled,” it read.
“The Active, National Guard, Reserve, and Academy marching requirements have been deleted and are no longer needed.”
The information from the Presidential Inauguration Committee (PIC) was called “definitive guidance,” according to the email.
The development is the latest indication that Biden will be sworn in in a low-key way, assuming the Republicans’ expected attempts this week to challenge electors proves unsuccessful.
