In conformation hearing, Vela declines to say whether he supports DC protest fee; will study issue

In his first public appearance before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, David Vela was asked only once about the proposals, which would alter the way protests are managed in and around some of the District’s most iconic landmarks.
