The recent press conference celebrating the Washington Commanders' potential move back to D.C. has stirred controversy over public funding. While the $2.7 billion investment by owner Josh Harris is significant, concerns arise about the anticipated $1 billion contribution from D.C. taxpayers. Critics argue that despite claims of the lowest public funding percentage compared to other stadiums, this deal still demands careful scrutiny to ensure fairness and transparency for D.C. residents, urging officials to negotiate for the best possible outcome amidst lingering distrust of past ownerships.
At this point, this is just a deal that is so much public money, it's just not fair to D.C. residents or to D.C. taxpayers.
Make your case, Mayor Bowser. Make it with enthusiasm and emotion. But make it honestly and transparently.
