The White House is proposing the sale of the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building and another historic venue in San Francisco as part of a money-saving strategy. By selling these properties and leasing office spaces for federal workers, the administration aims to cut maintenance costs. Critics like former Congresswoman Jackie Speier argue the initiative is politically motivated, suggesting it's a retaliatory action against Democrats, particularly those from California. The plan is further complicated by the potential long-term financial implications of leasing versus ownership.
The Trump administration says it will save money by avoiding maintenance on the buildings, selling the properties, then leasing office space for federal workers.
It's another example of how he is coming after Democrats. He's coming after California, and it's all about payback.
The lease will keep going up and you will end up paying the property taxes of the lessor, whereas you don't pay federal taxes when you are a federal government.
Also targeted is a federal building in San Bruno that stores national immigration archives.
