LinkLinksOpinion Washington Post editorial board: House Republicans hit a new low in their disregard for D.C. By Editor On Jul 24, 2018 43 Share HOUSE REPUBLICANS have hit a new low in their disregard for the District and the right of its residents to govern themselves. Even as they proclaim themselves champions of limited government and personal freedom, they passed a spending plan that unabashedly aims to limit the authority of the District’s elected officials over local issues. It is critical that the Senate, expected to take up a package of spending bills this week, makes clear it won’t go along with this unwarranted and unprincipled assault on the District’s right to self-government. 2019 BudgetCongressEleanor Holmes NortonHome Rule 43 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
