President Trump’s fiscal 2018 budget document released on Tuesday calls for full funding of the ongoing consolidation of the Homeland Security Department’s headquarters on the campus of St. Elizabeths hospital in Southeast Washington.
Though some Republicans in recent years blasted the project for cost overruns—prompting the General Services Administration to scale back the design—the DHS budget calls for $36.4 million and the GSA’s budget calls for $135 million. This will provide full funding, a DHS spokeswoman told Government Executive.
