End Federal Takeover of D.C. Police: Restore Local Control Now

Related Article: Congressional Democrats seek legislative end to Trump's DC police takeover - eagletribune.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 3:28:34 PM Eastern Daylight Time

Target: U.S. Congress

Goal: We demand Congress immediately pass the joint resolution to terminate the emergency federal takeover of the D.C. police and restore full local control to the people of Washington, D.C.

The recent federal intervention in Washington D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department undermines local democracy and sets a dangerous precedent for federal overreach.

President Donald Trump's emergency federalization of the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C. is an affront to the principles of local governance and democratic accountability. This unprecedented move strips D.C. residents of their right to oversee their own police force and threatens the autonomy of local governments everywhere.

Representatives Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia, along with D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, have introduced a joint resolution to end this federal takeover. We must support their efforts and urge Congress to act swiftly to restore local control and protect democratic norms.

Stand with us in demanding an end to this dangerous federal overreach and the immediate reinstatement of D.C.'s authority over its own police department.
