[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wes Moore and Maryland are screwed. In the current year appropriations bill, House Republicans are still trying to keep FBI HQ in DC. And it’s highly likely that they will not even pass a budget until the new session of Congress when Republicans control both chambers. 
[quote]The House version of the bill, drafted by Republicans, doesn’t include any funding for a new FBI headquarters and would require the GSA to send Congress “a detailed plan and timeline to support the District of Columbia based personnel by keeping the current FBI headquarters operational or identifying another Federally owned location in the District of Columbia that can serve as the FBI headquarters building.”[/quote]

What happened to Rs wanting to decentralize and move fed jobs out of DC?[/quote]
The FBI has said that they want to stay in DC as their first choice. [b]The Rs are supporting what FBI management want. [/b]FBI rank and file on the other hand want to be in Virginia. What FBI management wants could change in January. If you read the article you would also learn that there is a counter proposal to move the FBI headquarters to Huntsville, Alabama.

The nominee of the head R is proposing to shut down the DC headquarters and ship its employees all over the country. I doubt that's what FBI management wants, and I really doubt that's what the rank and file want.[/quote]
The preference of the current FBI management is to stay in DC. [/quote]

It’s possible Trump and Musk could relocate the rank and file to Alabama, and keep only a small office here in DC to meet the congressional mandate that the FBI remain in the National Capital Region. [/quote]
