💨 Abstract

Montgomery County, Maryland, is preparing for a potential increase in homeless residents due to President Donald Trump's directives to clear homeless encampments in D.C. County Executive Marc Elrich expressed concerns about the added strain on local resources without federal funding. County leaders and service providers are readying shelters and tracking potential increases in homeless individuals from D.C. Meanwhile, the federal takeover of the D.C. police department has not yet disrupted regional task forces addressing stolen cars and crime.
