Eleanor Holmes Norton: “I will ask the Amtrak president when he steps forward.”

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.

With this bill, House Republicans have intentionally committed nothing short of fiscal sabotage against D.C.

I would like to thank subcommittee Chair Rick Crawford for holding this hearing on transportation regulations.

This process is key to our democracy. It provides avenues for every citizen, lawmaker, and stakeholder to provide input into the rulemaking process.
