Janeese Lewis George vows to cut back on Trump’s ‘Safe and Beautiful Task Force’ on Day 1 as DC mayor

Published Updated



Washington, D.C.’s Democratic mayoral nominee, socialist Janeese Lewis George, seeks to roll back the Metropolitan Police Department’s cooperation with federal immigration officials and the Trump administration’s “Make D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force” on her first day in office.

As the Democratic nominee in deep-blue D.C., Lewis George is expected to win the Nov. 3 general election and be tasked with leading D.C. under a Republican administration.
