Trump vows to resume control of DC law enforcement in response to immigration enforcement issues
President Trump threatened to federalize Washington, D.C.’s police force in response to the mayor’s refusal to cooperate with immigration enforcement. The emergency order, which had taken over the local police force, expired last week. Mayor Bowser stated the city would not cooperate with ICE. Trump claimed his intervention improved crime, backed by the mayor, although crime was already decreasing. Trump warned of a national emergency if cooperation ceased. The White House did not confirm if Trump would follow through. Bowser issued an order for local police to work with federal agencies except ICE. Federal law enforcement continues operations in D.C.
