	Doing It Right: The District of Columbia Health Insurance Market Reform
		The legislation would create a District of Columbia Health Benefits Program, which would be a central clearinghouse through which anyone who lives, works, or attends an institution of higher education in the District of Columbia, and their dependents, could obtain health insurance coverage.
		At present, the District may be liable for malpractice committed at those clinics, but because they are independent organizations, the District government cannot help them to properly mitigate their risks.
		Those subsidies will be a bargain for the District government because they will ensure that the private clinics will be able to continue their mission to serve the District’s poorest population without the need for more expensive and cumbersome programs that the government would have to establish if they did not exist.

	District of Columbia voting rights - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		In anticipation of the amendment's ratification, in 1980 District voters approved the call of a Constitutional Convention to draft a proposed state constitution, just as U.S. territories in the late 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries had done prior to their admission as states.
		The original District of Columbia was formed out of parts of both Maryland and Virginia, and from 1790 until 1801 citizens living in D.C. continued to vote for, and even run as, candidates for the U.S. Congress in Maryland or Virginia.

	Demise of the Master Business License
		Washington, D.C. On July 8, 2003, the Council of the District of Columbia finally put to rest much of the confusion and frustration generated over the prior 24 plus months related to the establishment of a "Master Business License" program for the District of Columbia.
		A business whose operations has historically required special inspections, approvals and investigations in order to operate its business in the District of Columbia will have to file for and obtain, on an ongoing basis, a Basic Business License, as well as applicable endorsements related to the specific business activity that it is operating.
		Hopefully, the District of Columbia has adopted a program that is politically and administratively acceptable so that in the future it will not feel pressured to adopt another regulatory structure to impose on the business community.

		The District will also not be able to deal with its growing jail and prison population and the damage it is causing to families and communities until it establishes a comprehensive treatment-instead-of-incarceration program.
		It could be paid for by either the District of Columbia or the federal government.
		To my knowledge, the District has yet to tap into the federal Access to Recovery program, which provides drug treatment vouchers to people with substance abuse problems. Some states are giving these vouchers to people arrested for low-level drug offenses as part of diversion to treatment programs.

	Retail District Management Regulatory Reform Act of 2001
		Since the District does not appear to be able to control and effectively manage activities in its public space, the Downtown BID proposed that it and other similar organizations with specific interests in various areas of the City provide the management and control under the auspices of a City approved plan.
		The question for the Council, however, is whether or not the obvious ills of public space management can be cured by this proposed legislation.
		It is not clear at this time if the Council of the District of Columbia, although recognizing the problems of public space management in the City, is prepared to take up the cause in the face of strong opposition and likely legal challenges that may occur if the legislation is passed.
