Issa Requests Hearing on DC Commuter Tax

Lawmakers could take another look at allowing the District to tax people who work in D.C. but live in the suburbs in Virginia and Maryland.

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the Government Oversight Committee, which regulates D.C. government, is asking for a commuter tax hearing.

Issa did not say he supports the tax, but he said it’s worth examining since D.C. is the only place in the country that can’t level a commuter tax.
