President Trump will sign an executive order Friday to hold an IndyCar race on the streets of Washington D.C. this summer as part of America’s 250th birthday celebration.
The Interior and Transportation departments will be charged with designing a race route along the National Mall “that showcases the majesty of Washington, D.C., and its iconic national monuments,” according to a fact sheet obtained by NBC News.
Trump told The Post last week that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer was putting the brakes on his racing plans.
“We can’t get Schumer. Schumer is making it very difficult,” Trump told The Post in an exclusive Oval Office sitdown.
