Trump Seeks $2 Billion to Clean Up Washington, D.C.

“President Donald Trump announced Friday that he would request $2 billion from Congress to beautify Washington, the latest development in his plans to dramatically remake a city he says was overrun with crime and decay before he intervened,” the Washington Post reports.

“Trump said the administration would improve light fixtures and roads within a three-mile radius of the Capitol and the White House, as he accused D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) of failing to keep the city clean.”
