The Donald Trump administration has begun a major crackdown on homeless people living in camps across Washington, D.C. The White House says people who refuse to accept help will face jail time as the federal government takes control of law enforcement in the nation’s capital.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt made clear during a Tuesday press conference that the administration is moving quickly to clear out homeless camps. She said that 70 homeless camps have already been removed by the U.S. Park Police across the city.
