1. White House Proposes New Crime Bill
President Donald Trump plans to send Congress a new crime bill aimed at improving safety in Washington,

D.C., hoping it can serve as a model for other cities.

Only limited details are available.

2. Goals of the Legislation

According to the White House, the proposal will focus on reducing violent crime,

supporting law enforcement, and improving infrastructure.

Trump said, “Republicans will support it almost unanimously,” expressing doubt that Democrats would act decisively.

3. Collaboration With Congress and Law Enforcement

Sen. Lindsey Graham confirmed discussions with Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and staff.

Bondi said the Justice Department will work with local and federal agencies “to reduce violent crime and protect all residents and visitors.”

4. Next Steps

The package, called the D.C. Security Fund, will be sent to Sens. Graham and Katie Britt.

Congress returns after Labor Day, leaving a tight window before the Sept. 30 government funding deadline.
