Eleanor Holmes Norton: “First, I want to correct for the record, the Federal Government provides 23 percent of the District's revenue.”

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.

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

Because there is no limit on how long personal information can be exploited, Congress must protect these federal employees and contractors in perpetuity.
