Norton Slams ‘Historic Assault’ on DC Home Rule by Trump

Summary by The Hill
Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.) criticized President Trump's plan to federalize the Metropolitan Police Department and deploy National Guard troops to combat crime, calling it an "historic assault" on D.C.'s autonomy and a justification for her push for statehood.
