Eleanor Holmes Norton: “There has been no remedy to give the Justice Department the tools it needs to prosecute straw purchasers or gun…”

I believe this bill strikes the middle ground, while showing Congress' support for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Our local police force should not be subject to federalization, an action that wouldn't be possible for any other police department in the country.

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

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.
