💨 Abstract

By Tuesday, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser will present her proposed FY-2026 budget and a supplemental 2025 budget with hundreds of millions in cuts due to federal funding reductions. Delays in presenting these budgets to the D.C. Council have sparked criticism. The council must rush to vote on the budget by early August. Necessary approvals may include significant cuts, hire freezes, and potential closures of city facilities.
