Eleanor Norton actually said...

"While Congress has Constitutional authority to legislate on local D.C. matters, it does not have a Constitutional duty to do so."

"D.C. residents, a majority of whom are Black and Brown, are capable and worthy of governing themselves."

"If House Republicans cared about Democratic principles or local D.C. residents, they would bring my D.C. Statehood Bill..."

"It is incredible that we are holding this sham hearing 2 days before the government will shut down."
