We want members of Congress to vote NO on every bill against DC. Members and candidates for Congress are invited to sign the Free DC pledge, to always side with DC residents — not attacks.

Representative Brandon Gill and Senator Rick Scott have introduced bills that would block DC from using our own local money to support children and families here.

On January 28, Free DC held a press conference at St. Marks and made office visits to Senate offices to urge them to stop funding the Department of Homeland Security’s campaign of terror.

This week we are calling key Senators with a simple message: Stop funding DHS’ terror campaign, and then do your constitutional duty to hold the DHS agencies accountable.

Attempts to dismantle DC's local governing power are part of the Trump’s administration’s systematic attacks on American communities and democracy.

A coalition of more than 20 national organizations — and growing — is formally opposing these and all attacks against DC.
