Eleanor Holmes Norton: “The CIG program has long enjoyed strong bipartisan support.”

In my long career representing D.C. residents in Congress, I have rarely seen a bill as unreasonable and patronizing to the more than 700,000 people who live in the nation’s capital as this one.

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

Lifetime identity protection is the only solution that will give the workers whose data was compromised the peace of mind they deserve.

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.
