Bilbray wishes freeways jammed down DC's throat: Brian Bilbray (R-CA), who will take over the House subcommittee oveerseeing the District instead of Jason Chaffetz, once complained that "politics" stood in the way of tearing down many DC neighborhoods to build freeways. (Housing Complex) (Comment)
It's Bilbray, not Chaffetz: Jason Chaffetz won't be heading the DC oversight subcommitteee in the House after all, instead taking oversight of TSA and DHS (and he opposes the full body scanners). Instead, DC's House overlord will be San Diego Republican Brian Bilbray, who attended a WMATA oversight hearing where I testified but seemed to have a mysterious irritation with automatic train control.
