FEMA has provided more than $1.6 billion in assistance to more than 910,000 households.

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.

I think returning to a pre-Sackett regime would provide a uniform level of protection across the United States.
