Among the last-minute changes to House Republicans’ legislation to raise the debt ceiling that they hope to pass Wednesday is an amendment clawing back $200 million for a park in former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco district.
The funding is at the center of a GOP investigation after the National Park Service revealed Interior Department officials ordered the tranche be directed for park maintenance to the Presidio, a national park bordering the water on the south end of the Golden Gate Bridge that includes a golf course, luxury hotels, retail stores and museums.
National Park Service Director Charles F. Sams testified to Congress last week that Interior Department officials ordered $200 million to Presidio Trust, a federal agency to preserve the park, despite the money not being specifically allocated for the project by Congress. The move marked a departure from agency norms by designating such a large chunk of overall park maintenance funding to a project not sanctioned by Congress, Mr. Sams acknowledged.
Mrs. Pelosi’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Republicans trying to revoke the money.
