The District government has an ambitious agenda. And it's not afraid to go to court to achieve it. We talk to Mayor Adrian Fenty about taxi-meters, slumlords, and the wave of lawsuits facing the city. Plus, we examine how the housing crisis is forcing suburban governments to make tough choices about new taxes and old spending plans. Sorting political fact from fiction, and having fun while we're at it. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
Adrian Fenty, Mayor, District of Columbia
Jack Johnson, County Executive, Prince George's County, Maryland
