Posts - Bill - HR 4378 District of Columbia Board of Zoning Adjustment Home Rule Act

house 07/14/2025 - 119th Congress

We aim to ensure that the District of Columbia has full control over appointments to its Board of Zoning Adjustment, promoting local self-governance, except in cases involving foreign missions where federal involvement remains necessary. This change supports greater home rule while respecting national interests.

Federal interference has been the zoning party crasher; it’s time to kick them out and let residents lead.

Nothing screams democracy like handing power back to folks who actually live and breathe the neighborhood.

Local voices, local choices—finally, D.C. gets the home rule it deserved yesterday.

This bill is just another excuse for the city government to expand its overreach under the banner of 'home rule.'

Handing zoning power to D.C. sounds neat until you remember who’s running the show: bureaucracy gone wild.

Giving D.C. more say on zoning feels like a win, but let’s not forget foreign missions still get a seat at the table.

Local control is great—unless it’s D.C. locals pushing agendas that hurt taxpayers and businesses.

A sensible tweak—balancing local control with national security isn’t rocket science, but it sure needs it.

D.C. running its zoning board? Makes sense. Keeping some federal eyes for foreign issues? Also smart.
