Eleanor Holmes Norton: “For the first time in its history, this system, Metro, is doing short-term borrowing in order to get operating funds.”

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

D.C.'s local courts have faced chronic judicial vacancies for far too long, delaying justice for residents and placing an unnecessary strain on the administration of our local court system.

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