Democrats want to stop Trump's arch, golf course and more. What are their options?
NPR reports that Democrats, led by Rep. Jared Huffman's incoming chairmanship of the House Natural Resources Committee, aim to use funding and oversight to stop President Trump's Washington projects — the triumphal arch, East Potomac golf course renovations, and White House ballroom — though experts say legislation is unlikely and Trump has promised to veto everything. Democrats plan to attach limits to the December 11, 2026 funding bill, and the White House, citing its beautification record, says Democrats should work with Trump instead.
