The “Black Lives Matter” mural near the White House is being removed due to a Republican bill proposing federal funding cuts unless it’s renamed “Liberty Plaza.” Bowser complies with external pressures but urged against “meaningless congressional interference.” The project removal cost is around $610,000 and will take 6-8 weeks. Keyonna Jones, mural artist, expressed pride; Rep. Andrew Clyde introduced the bill that pushed for the mural’s removal. Some local residents feel unrepresented by the decision, while conservatives, including influencer Chaya Raichik, celebrated it as “healing.” The removal commemorates the US 250th Anniversary.
