[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This doesn’t matter at all. Is there a single thing the D.C. mayor needs to do that requires her to be on the House floor? No? Great, then who cares if she or future mayors are banned?[/quote] Is there a single thing a governor needs to do that requires them to be on the House floor? OTOH, DC has no voting representation in Congress despite the fact that Congress can control the DC budget and exercise a veto over legislation and how DC taxes are spent. It’s good old fashioned Jim Crow. [/quote] The DC congressional representative can vote on legislation in committee and in fact, Holmes Norton was a subcommittee chair in the last Congress. [/quote]
