Its blatant pettiness on the part of the republicans. This video makes it sound like Mayor Bowser having access to the House floor is incredibly vital, but I don't recall Mayor Bowser ever being on the House Floor. I think the bigger deal here is the level of pettiness on display. These are our lawmakers and if they're willing to block somebody from the House floor who as far as I can tell has never been on the House floor, what other stupid petty things are they going to do.

Precisely. I live in DC and do not recall when the Mayor has ever gone to Congress unless summoned. Congress already has oversight and control of DC government - what’s the point of all this unless it is to be petty.
