LinkLinks Washington Post: D.C. mayor hopes new police chief, crime bill can spur tangible change By Editor On Jul 21, 2023 Last updated Jul 22, 2023 26 Share D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser’s recent nomination of a new chief of police and backing of emergency public safety legislation comes as the city grapples with a surge in violent crime and homicides.
