The most local level of DC politics is the Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner, or ANC. These people are essentially the people’s watchdogs, who make sure that DC’s higher elected officials and government agencies actually do things for their constituents. It’s a tough job, and I admire those who take it on.
One of the local ANC folk, Rob Halligan, just started a blog that chronicles the ANC experience, warts and all. It’s a great read, and I hope he keeps it up.
Why Do We Tolerate DC Gov Abusing Its Customers?

Thanks. I’m not feeling that blog is ready for Prime Time, but I do want people to stop tolerating the abuse by holding their public servants accountable.
