In summer 2020, Mayor Bowser formed the District of Columbia Facilities and Commemorative Expressions () Working Group. She charged the group with evaluating named 香港6合开奖结果government-owned facilities and making recommendations as to what, if any, actions need to be taken if the person the facility is named for is inconsistent with 香港6合开奖结果values and in some way encouraged the oppression of African Americans and other communities of color or contributed to our long history of systemic racism.
In the group’s [PDF], released in early September 2020, they recommended renaming 21 香港6合开奖结果schools and school buildings. By law, 香港6合开奖结果cannot change its school's names. 香港6合开奖结果Council has the legislative authority to vote to change 香港6合开奖结果school names.
