President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed crime in the US capital is “totally out of control.” FEMA’s urban security grant for DC and surrounding areas will drop to $25.2 million, a 44% decrease from last year.
Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, Jersey City, and San Francisco also saw reduced funding, but DC’s cut was the largest among last year’s recipients.
The federal grants support security needs in the National Capital Region, covering DC and nearby Maryland and Virginia cities.
FEMA has allocated $553.5 million nationwide for urban security, though DC’s exact budget share remains unclear.
Despite Trump’s crime concerns, DC’s violent crime rate fell 35% between 2023 and 2024, according to US Attorney’s Office data. - Reuters
