Lawmakers demand answers as turmoil over Reflecting Pool repair continues

Lawmakers demand investigations into the troubled $16 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, citing no-bid contracts awarded to vendors with ties to President Donald Trump. The project has faced issues like algal blooms and peeling paint, with Trump blaming vandals for the problems. Two contractors, Green Water Solutions and Atlantic Industrial Coatings, were awarded contracts for the pool's purification and repainting.
