Congress forced Washington, D.C. to budget for next year only what it spent last year. Mayor Bowser says this means 410 million dollars in spending cuts. No new hires or promotions, no pay raises, no bonuses, no overtime—well, except maybe for cops—and possible temporary closures of rec centers and libraries.
At the same time Bowser proposes to spend 850 million dollars to help the Washington Commanders develop a new football stadium at the RFK stadium site.
Politicians from both parties together cooked up this scheme. They will cut the budget on our backs while the billionaires get fat on what’s left.
