The WSJ reports that Rep. Jim Jordan (R., Ohio) intends to attach a rider to strip funding for the FBI in coming appropriations bills unless it relocates to Huntsville. The FBI said there are “numerous operational reasons” to keep the headquarters in D.C.
This comes as the bureau is eyeing a move from its Washington, D.C. building to a suburb of the nation’s capital, in either Maryland or Virginia.
The FBI currently works out of the 50-year-old J. Edgar Hoover Building, with more than 5,000 employees, located across the street from the Justice Department’s headquarters. According to the Journal, it’s another volley in the war going on between the FBI and Republicans who say the agency has grown too partisan in its investigations of former President Donald Trump.
The FBI, in response, said there are “numerous operational reasons” to keep the headquarters in Washington, given its proximity to the FBI academy near Quantico, Va., and other intelligence agencies.
