💨 Abstract
The Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, announced that U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Interim Secretary Doug Burgum will visit Alcatraz to discuss plans to convert the tourist site back into a federal prison. Pelosi expressed concern over the costs, given the national debt. Alcatraz, closed in 1963 due to infrastructure issues, is famous for housing notorious criminals. Proposed conversion has mixed reactions, with tourists and experts questioning its feasibility and benefits.
