What is more confusing is our current efforts to undo a measure that was passed by an overwhelming majority of D.C. residents and subsequently upheld in the courts. Meanwhile. Republicans continue to ignore our nations crumbling infrastructure. income inequality. the need for jobs. immigration reform. and sensible gun control. not to mention the Federal budget. yet we are debating a measure that would further rollback the clock on the rights of D.C. residents. Where are our priorities? Let me put it another waywhy should Congressional dysfunction keep the District government from using tax revenues paid by District residents to pick up trash?
