Democrats will get new power to probe Trump’s DC projects if they win back the House

Democrats would gain new investigative authority over President Trump’s Washington, D.C., projects if they win back the House in the midterms, including scrutiny of construction at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and plans for an arch near Arlington National Cemetery. For months, Democrats have criticized the administration’s “beautification” efforts, and control of one or both chambers would unlock sweeping oversight powers they could direct at those projects. The outcome matters because House committees could compel documents and testimony on project costs, contracts and decision-making. What to watch next is whether Democrats win the House and which committees formally open probes into the D.C. initiatives.
