#3 After living in D.C. for eighteen years (1982-2000) nothing the D.C.City council proposes or enacts surprises me.

#4 Given that many ex-convicts won't be qualified for any job harder than pushing a broom anyway, it's a waste of time and limited funds to do a background check on anyone not a serious candidate for a given job.

#6 They should just cover their asses and make it okay to hire future ex-convicts.

#7 The step in this progression will be to make a felony conviction a requirement for holding public office in DC.

#8 This is how the DC government works. They wanted to lower standards for Police also because too many recruits had records. This is what a DC representative said to a group who were about to have their property taken "congress can make the laws and congress can change the laws"(that law was 200 years old". Minority set aside programs are another sham.
