Issue Position: Norton Gets House to Pass a D.C. Statue Bill

Issue Position

With no way to get two statues in the U.S. Capitol for the taxpaying residents of the District, Norton got the House to pass a bill for one statue for the city, along with one for each of the U.S. territories, after House Republicans agreed to support that bill. Norton responded to the desire of residents that is so strong that years ago the city commissioned two statutes, which are ready to move into the Capitol. Her statue bill passed the House by voice vote and with bipartisan support, however, the bill stalled in the Senate. Norton will reintroduce her statue bill in the next Congress.
