Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the federal government is taking over management of Washington D.C.'s Union Station from Amtrak, citing disrepair and safety concerns. Duffy stated this action, aligned with President Trump's vision, aims to improve the station and the city's overall appearance at a lower cost. This decision follows Trump's request for $2 billion to beautify Washington and the deployment of National Guard troops to combat crime, despite statistics showing a recent decline in violent crime.
