[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC Council can't pass any legislation without it going through congress - who can either reverse it or let it go through. We don't need the national guard to fix the catch and release issues, congress can just address it and override the DC council and also approve the spending of DC tax dollars funded from our 9% income tax to address crime instead of withholding our ability to spend our own local tax dollars. There is already extensive congressional oversight w/out this expensive performative faux occupation[/quote] The drop in crime shows its not performative. Its performing. If DC had a rational council and Mayor, this would disrupt the status quo and the city would try to figure out how to sustain the gains. But what will probably happen is the council will dither, crime will resume and the feds will take over in a more official manner. Completely self-inflicted too. [/quote]
