The bill submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser outlines the proposed modifications to the FY 2026 Grant Budget for the District of Columbia. It includes various federal grant requests from multiple agencies, such as the Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency, the Office of Victim Services and Justice Grants, and the Department of Employment Services. Each grant request is aimed at establishing specific programs or services, with detailed budget amounts provided for each initiative. Notably, the Department of Employment Services has a COVID-related grant request, while others are not related to the pandemic.

The modifications include the establishment of several grants, such as the Building Resilient Infrastructure grant totaling $1,282,667.44 and various grants from the Office of Victim Services and Justice Grants aimed at supporting crime victims and substance abuse treatment. The bill emphasizes the importance of these funding requests in enhancing the services provided to the community and ensuring the effective use of federal resources. The Mayor's office is open to discussions regarding these modifications, indicating a collaborative approach with the Council of the District of Columbia.
