One thing I like to have happen is for me to learn something new everyday. In my view, if I don't feel I need to learn anything new then why live? It is one reason why I like reading alternative weekly papers like Washington DC's City Paper. With all the talk of the recent Democratic Primary for DC Mayor (what many call the ACTUAL election), there was one aspect of DC Government that hasn't gotten much attention: The upcoming House Election and a possible change in party would mean a new chairperson of the Federal Workforce, Postal Service, and the District of Columbia Subcommittee of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The ranking member of this subcommittee seems to view things strictly by The Constitution which could mean drastic changes in how much Congressional involvement in major DC decisions.
This City Paper article is an interesting read about Congressman Jason Chaffetz's desire to chair this subcommittee.
