Democrats demand info on Trump use of national park fees to pay for D.C. repairs

Democrats are raising alarms about the Trump administration's decision to redirect nearly $90 million in national park fees to fund repairs and special events in Washington, D.C., sparking calls for transparency from the Interior Department. This move, primarily affecting Western states, has drawn criticism as it diverts funds intended for preserving and maintaining national parks to the capital's infrastructure. This controversy highlights broader concerns about the administration's priorities and the potential misuse of taxpayer and visitor-generated funds.
