WASHINGTON — It’s official. The Gathering for Justice, also known as the Women’s March on Washington, has a permit for what is expected to be a massive rally and march after the Inauguration.

D.C. police confirm it approved the permit application for a rally at 3rd Street and Independence Avenue in Southwest on Jan. 21.
