Eleanor Holmes Norton: “All I need is a back and forth with the community, because as the community sees a good faith effort...”

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

Because there is no limit on how long personal information can be exploited, Congress must protect these federal employees and contractors in perpetuity.

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

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.
