001Well, today DC leaders are heading into a high-stakes budget hearing with some controversial cuts on the table. Mayor Muriel Bowser is proposing to eliminate a pay equity program for early child care workers. It's a move that would save about $60 million, but it's drawn some pushback from educators set to testify. At the same time, the plan would cut funding to the Office of Neighborhood Safety while increasing police spending, raising questions about how the city is prioritizing public safety and services. This hearing will get underway at 9:00 a.m.
