FBI to Move Headquarters to Reagan Building

News summary

The FBI has announced it will relocate its headquarters from the J. Edgar Hoover Building to the Ronald Reagan Building in downtown Washington, D.C., ending years of debate over a potential move to suburban Maryland or Virginia. This decision reverses a previous Biden administration plan to build a new facility in Greenbelt, Maryland, which had faced criticism from Virginia lawmakers and some FBI officials. Maryland Governor Wes Moore and local congressional leaders have vowed to continue advocating for the Greenbelt site, arguing it better meets security and operational requirements. FBI Director Kash Patel cited cost savings and efficiency, especially in light of proposed federal budget cuts, as primary factors for moving into an existing facility. The current Hoover Building has become increasingly unsafe due to deferred maintenance. The new headquarters, located less than a mile away, is expected to provide a safer and more modern workspace for FBI personnel.
