In this photo taken March 20, 2017, The U.S. Institute of Peace building is seen in Washington. The booming Washington region has long been an easy target for Republican lawmakers who want to cut federal spending. Last year, a GOP congressman from Iowa tweeted a picture of construction cranes on the waterfront south of the Capitol with the comment, “D.C. needs a recession.” Agencies on the chopping block include the U.S. Institute for Peace.
