About Nelson Rimensnyder

Since coming to Washington in 1970, Nelson Rimensnyder has been a leader in efforts to achieve home rule and representation through a vote in the House and a delegate in the Senate.

If elected, Nelson pledges to devote full time to achieve voting representation and legislative autonomy for the District. Until Congress acts on this issue, he will also advocate for exemption of DC residents from federal income taxation.

Our Nation was founded on the principle that citizens should not be taxed without their consent. Residents of the District are the only American citizens who are taxed without their consent. Until Congress acts to correct this fundamental injustice, Nelson will continue to bring this issue to the national media.

Nelson has experience and established relationships with Congressional members and staff that enable him to mobilize support from both parties. Sending a Republican to the Hill would give the District credibility and greater influence in the Congress.Nelson and voter
