Hopefully, this is the first of more to come.

Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) is holding true to her promise by scheduling the first hearing over the flap regarding photographers and Union Station security guards and management.

According to LightboxDC, the meeting will be scheduled as follows:

 The hearing is set for next Tuesday, July 22, 10:00am in Room 2167 of the Rayburn House Office Building (RHOB for all ye fellow former Hill staffers; I just had to type “RHOB” reflexively).
