Are Dems Doing Enough to Fight For DC?

from City Cast DC · host City Cast

Jamie Raskin is a Congressman from Maryland — but he’s also a DC Native and one of the District’s champions on the Hill. This month, he’s the author of a bill to terminate Donald Trump’s takeover of the police department. In a GOP Congress, passing it may be a stretch, but Raskin stopped by for an interesting talk about just how political figures like him can oppose the administration’s unprecedented surge into hometown Washington.
