Donald Trump is NO KING and I'm calling on all candidates and elected officials to stand together following his threat to take federal control of DC if @Janeese4DC becomes mayor. President Trump should mind his business and leave DC alone, he is neither an elected leader of this city nor a voter here.
We have to fight back against this regime. We have to make sure that the District stays in the hands of its residents, and the only way to protect ourselves in the future is to become a state. Statehood helps us end our local National Guard occupation, restricts ICE’s ability to rip our families apart, and shields our laws and budget from outside interests. Statehood is something I’ll never stop fighting for until it’s reality!

For the second time this Congress, the Oversight Com. advanced a paternalistic, undemocratic bill to overturn DC traffic safety laws.
PA uses these same tools, yet @RepScottPerry seeks to deny them to DC.
Congress should keep its #HandsOffDC.

Regardless of the implications of Rep. Perry and this Committee’s actions, 700,000 D.C. residents, a majority of whom are Black and Brown, are worthy and capable of governing themselves without input from members of Congress who do not represent DC.

Here’s a good primer from CRS regarding “Congressional Disapproval of District of Columbia Acts”. Since Home Rule, only 4 disapproval resolutions nullifying DC laws have actually been enacted into law—it sadly looks like the 5th is on the way soon to being added to the list :(

The D.C. Council’s decision to BLOCK its residents from benefitting from @POTUS’ Working Families Tax Cuts is ABSURD.
Government’s top priority should be serving families, not benefiting off them.

Before today’s vote, I released my remarks making clear that I will not stay silent as the House pushes through two bills attacking DC home rule.
Enough is enough.
This relentless, antidemocratic assault on DC must end.
