What is FEMA, the agency Trump has threatened to get rid of?
Ahead of a tour of two states recently struck by natural disasters, President Donald Trump on Friday proposed overhauling the Federal Emergency Management Agency — or eliminating the organization altogether. Trump criticized the agency as “very bureaucratic” and “very slow” and said he’d rather see states lead their own responses and then seek reimbursement from the federal government.

Service fees have upended D.C. restaurants. Here’s how workers really feel.
Service fees have roiled D.C.’s dining scene since voters passed Initiative 82, a law that gradually raises the minimum wage for tipped workers until it aligns with the rate for non-tipped workers. The idea behind the 2022 law was to give tipped workers, such as restaurant servers and bartenders, more stability in their pay and make them less reliant on tips. In practice, I-82 spurred many restaurants to implement service charges that they say will enable them to pay the higher wage.
