Md. Delegation Vows to Fight FBI’s Move to New DC Location ‘with Every Tool We Have’

WASHINGTON, D.C., JUL 2 – The FBI will relocate to the Ronald Reagan Building, saving taxpayers billions in construction and avoiding over $300 million in deferred maintenance costs, officials said.

  • The FBI announced it will move from the J. Edgar Hoover Building to the Ronald Reagan Building in downtown Washington, D.C., reversing plans for a new headquarters in Greenbelt, Maryland.
  • This decision overrides the Biden administration's 2023 plan to build in Greenbelt, which was selected after extensive review for meeting security and mission needs.
  • Maryland and Virginia leaders criticized the move as hasty and insecure, with officials exploring legal options to oppose it, while D.C. officials welcomed retaining federal operations in the city.
  • FBI Director Kash Patel called the relocation a 'historic moment for the FBI,' citing the aging Hoover Building's deferred maintenance and a safer, cost-effective facility at the Reagan Building.
  • The relocation ends years of political debate, but Maryland leaders vowed to continue fighting, emphasizing the move's economic impact and potential congressional opposition over safety concerns.
