Eleanor Holmes Norton: “The President has already given the Federal response a grade of 10 out of 10”

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.

This bill would establish a commonsense process to ensure that qualified nominees are not indefinitely delayed by Senate inaction.

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.
