This bill creates two programs focused on Washington, D.C.: a beautification program and a safety commission, both running until January 2029. The Secretary of the Interior must establish a beautification program within 30 days to coordinate cleaning and maintaining federal and D.C. facilities, monuments, parks, and public spaces, including removing graffiti and restoring damaged monuments. The bill also creates a District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful Commission led by a senior White House official and including representatives from multiple federal law enforcement agencies and U.S. Attorney offices. The commission's responsibilities include enforcing immigration law in D.C., monitoring the city's sanctuary status, helping the D.C. police department with recruitment and resources, speeding up concealed carry permits, reducing Metro crime, and increasing federal law enforcement presence at major sites like the National Mall. Both programs must submit annual progress reports to Congress, and no specific funding amounts are mentioned in the legislation.
