What H.R. 5103 does
H.R. 5103, the Make the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful Act, would create a commission in the executive branch to advise on criminal and immigration matters in Washington, DC, and a federal program to keep commonly visited areas clean. A March 27, 2025 executive order established a similar task force and program.
The commission would include representatives of the U.S. Attorneys' Offices for DC, Maryland and Virginia, specified federal agencies and other federal entities. It would recommend actions on enforcing federal immigration law in DC, providing federal resources to reduce crime, and recruiting and keeping Metropolitan Police Department officers. The Department of the Interior would run the cleanup program for monuments, parks and roads, and restore damaged or removed federal monuments. The bill's provisions would end on January 2, 2029.
