EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans on Friday demanded that Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser “immediately suspend” the “radical” proposal from a city organization to rename, relocate or potentially remove monuments in the nation’s capital. TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER TO PROTECT AMERICAN MONUMENTS, STATUES AND MEMORIALSThe two GOP lawmakers called the recommendations from the city panel “radical.”“The Working Group wants the Federal government to ‘remove, relocate, or contextualize’ eight different monuments and memorials located on federal property,” they wrote. Bowser tasked the Working Group with reviewing DC Government-owned streets, libraries, schools, recreational centers, parks, statues in DC Government-owned parks, and other named public spaces. “The Working Group report, commissioned at your behest, is a disappointing waste of taxpayer dollars,” they wrote. It also provides assistance for protecting the federal statues.
