Eleanor Holmes Norton: “That seems, Mr. Chairman, to be minimally necessary.”

I have urged the administration to remove these troops immediately.

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

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.

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