[quote=Anonymous]Look at all the cuts the GOP forced on DC already in 2025. They are 💯 responsible for any stank. They are cutting funds to MOD and efforts to combat homelessness. They’re also cutting education, which won’t help roving bands of teens.

“It was only a few years ago that Republicans accused Democrats of wanting to defund the police. But on Tuesday afternoon, House Republicans seemed to do just that in D.C. – and much more.
The House approved a federal spending bill that could force D.C.’s local officials to cut more than $1 billion out of the city’s current $21.2 billion budget, a move that city leaders warn would prompt a hiring freeze, result in likely government layoffs, and potentially “decimate” services for residents and visitors – including police and schools.”

“…[b]while the Metropolitan Police Department would have to cut $67 million. D.C. Fire & EMS would need to slash $42 million in spending, while the Department of Human Services – which handles homelessness and other social services – would be on the hook for $28 million in cuts[/b].”
