The meeting, described as 'great' by Bowser, focused on areas of potential cooperation between local and federal government, including the federal workforce, underutilized federal buildings, parks and green spaces, and infrastructure. Bowser expressed optimism about finding common ground with Trump, stating that both share a goal to make Washington, D.C. the best and most beautiful city in the world, reflecting the strength of the nation.
