[quote](Washington, DC) – Today, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced that the District of Columbia and Children’s National Hospital have reached an exclusive one-year agreement to evaluate sites for a new hospital campus within the District. To support this effort, the Mayor has proposed $1 million in her FY26 Supplemental Budget to fund comprehensive site assessments and due diligence.[/quote][/quote]

Ha ha ha. The mayor is going to spend $1 million to help a private business evaluate potential sites. No guarantees about which, if any, site is chosen. If she didn't spend this money, the hospital would still do the same evaluations.

Want the business to stay? Offer a $1 million tax break. [/quote]

What DC taxes do you think they pay?  [/quote]

Giving them $1 million to study properties isn't going to help either. The hospital currently leases. Give them $1 million grant toward the purchase of property in DC. Or use the $1 million to pay for the licensing fees for the doctors and nurses. [/quote]
