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

I’m gonna run. I don’t know why anybody would even ask me.

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.

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