If the author had followed this issue as it was brewing, (s)he would know that this resolution has been passed, in near secrecy, in an act of public-official activism, against the will of a substantial number of D.C. residents - a number surely large enough to necessitate a general vote on the matter, rather than allowing 13 people to decide. It is against this type of modern activist oligarchy (big government on a small scale) that the Congressman raises objection.

The US Constitution says that Congress is in control of D.C. 2. Rep. Chaffetz is doing his job. He is on the committee, and the "ranking" GOP on it. 3. Are you afraid that Congress will overturn the D.C. vote? They may or may not, but they should vote. 4. A large part of the population of D.C. belong to "black" Christian churches and are hopping made about the D.C. Council's action. 5. "All hell is going to break loose," warned Barry, the former D.C. mayor, after the council voted 12-to-1 Tuesday to recognize same-sex marriages performed elsewhere. "We may have a civil war.
