DC Vote

DC Vote is a 501 (c)(3) educational and advocacy organization dedicated to securing full voting representation in Congress for the residents of the District of Columbia. We've launched a national public awareness campaign to educate constituents about DC's denial of a vote in Congress. We're visiting states where Senators are filibustering the DC Voting Rights Act and keeping the dream alive at home in the District. Read all the latest and post your comments. We welcome your input!

Seriously? Seriously. Don't these guys have their own constituents?

Surprise, surprise. Representatives Jim Jordan and Jason Chaffetz introduced a bill to "save" the institution of marriage in DC. Chaffetz said the Constitution made him do it. Attention members of Congress, why don't you really help DC residents and pass the DC Voting Rights Act already?

Congress is All Up in DC's Bidness Again

Because certain members of Congress have no respect for home rule...next on the agenda for Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) is the defeat of the DC's law recognizing same-sex marriages performed in other states. A perfect (and I use that adjective ironically) example of Congress trying to interfere with local issues here in DC!

Read all about how he's going to fix DC's problems. Funny? Doesn't he have constituents of his own who need assistance? Hmmm.
