At the same time, being unable to rent an apartment in DC as a Congressperson effectively cuts out people who were, or are of, a certain income strata from ever serving as representatives and Senators. Is that actually desirable?
- vorpalhex 4y agoNo. They can commute from Maryland or Virginia like everyone else. Biden, when he was VP under Obama, commuted back and forth to Delaware on the weekends still.
- bobthepanda 4y agoThose states, and pretty much every state, also have apartments that run credit score checks.
- vorpalhex 4y agoYes, and you can still get housing with a bad credit score, you will just be getting less expensive housing.
