Former Rep. Donna Edwards, who’s running again in Maryland’s 4th Congressional District that includes FedEx Field, said in an interview all the Metro stations in the county should be refurbished “to develop affordable and workforce housing around them.”
“Make sure there is retail and commercial development and bring federal agencies to locate [there].],” Edwards said.
As for the Commanders remaining in Prince George’s, Edwards said it’s beneficial for both the team and the county.
“Any national football team would be proud to be located in this county and a transportation hub that services the stadium,” she said. “It’s important that the citizens of Maryland and Prince George’s County foot the bill for things that benefit us. I hope and I believe that this effort on the part of the governor and the county executive could result in a huge benefit to keeping the Commanders at that stadium and also bring a tremendous benefit for the people of the county.”
