Encampment Clearing Notice Posted On Tents In Washington
A notice by the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services stating that an encampment will be cleared is posted on the tent of a person experiencing homelessness on a overpass in Washington Circle in Washington, D.C. on August 14, 2025. Several days prior, President Donald Trump invoked section 740 of Washington, D.C.'s Home Rule Act of 1973, federalizing the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department and deploying over 800 National Guard troops, citing crime-fighting reasons, and stating that the homeless in the city should "move out, immediately."
