Eleanor Holmes Norton: “Well you see suspicion is aroused whenever some sunny spot is picked.”

I believe this bill strikes the middle ground, while showing Congress' support for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Our local police force should not be subject to federalization, an action that wouldn't be possible for any other police department in the country.

I am outraged at the number and scope of anti-D.C. home rule riders in the bill released today.

I will use every tool at my disposal to stop these riders from becoming law, and I commit to reminding my fellow lawmakers across the aisle that D.C. residents deserve the same consideration as their own constituents at every opportunity.
