House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is 'monitoring' reports of a major trucker convoy heading to Washington, D.C., in advance of President Biden's State of the Union address on March 1.

Police declined to offer additional on the record statements on Tuesday when asked by Fox News Digital.D.C. has requested support from the National Guard in anticipation of the massive convoy, a government source told Fox News on Tuesday. The D.C. National Guard can provide up to 400 troops, if approved.

State and local law enforcement have so far been unable to secure the necessary number of tow trucks to clear the anticipated tractor-trailers, according to the government source, so the National Guard will create strategic road blocks throughout D.C. President Joe Biden arrives with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to speak from Statuary Hall.

Meanwhile, the National Guard troops are"encamped," meaning they are not necessarily physically stationed at locations, but are on standby and prepped for the mission, a government source told Fox News. They are awaiting approval from the Department of Defense .
