This bill creates a Secretary of the Interior-led "beautification" program to clean public spaces, remove graffiti, and restore federal monuments in Washington, D.C., with annual reports to Congress. It also establishes a "District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful Commission" of federal law enforcement agencies to recommend policies on immigration enforcement, crime lab accreditation, police recruiting, Metro fare evasion, pretrial detention, and law enforcement presence at sites like the National Mall. Both programs would expire in January 2029.
D.C. residents, visitors, and local government agencies would be primarily affected, along with federal agencies like the FBI, ATF, U.S. Marshals, and Homeland Security who would staff the new commission.
The bill increases federal oversight of local D.C. functions—policing, immigration enforcement, and public space maintenance—that are normally handled by the city's own government.
