[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think the DC Council might change its mind on this when they realize how all the World Bank, IMF employee, and foreign embassy employee votes are not going their way.[/quote] Diplomatic treaties and accompanying visas likely preclude them from voting. Try again. [/quote] How would they be prevented from voting. They ha e a utility bill and a non diplomatic visa working for the IMF. They have lived here ten years. Heck they even have a DC Real ID drivers license. (I am speaking from experience here.) [/quote] A G4 visa is technically non-diplomatic, but it also confers certain rights and obligations related to international treaties and agreements, e.g. income taxation and eligibility for welfare benefits. In any case, treaties are obligations of the Federal government.[/quote]
