  "account": "A recent Gallup poll reveals the far-reaching effects of President Donald Trump's policies on the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Over half of the residents in the DC-Maryland-Virginia region reported being negatively affected by federal job cuts and furloughs. This figure increases when focusing solely on residents of DC and its nearby suburbs in Arlington and Alexandria. The impact of immigration enforcement under Trump is particularly pronounced among Hispanic residents, with 43% feeling adversely affected. Additionally, 23% of DMV residents acknowledged being impacted by the heightened military presence in the district, while 44% of DC residents echoed this sentiment.",
  "summary": "Four in 10 people residing in Washington, DC, said they’ve been adversely affected by increased military presence in the district.",
