At this second, 5,928 people (and potentially 569 others) are planning to protest in front of Speaker of the House John Boehner’s D.C. home tomorrow morning. Participants will gather at 9:30 a.m. in front of the Capital South Metro station, then march to Boehner’s home under the unifying belief that “if [Boehner] won’t allow us to use OUR TAX DOLLARS to pick [garbage] up, maybe we should just BRING IT TO HIM.”

It’ll be the second sizable demonstration at the Ohio Republican’s residence in recent weeks — in February, D.C. voting rights advocates roused the Speaker in February to air displeasure with his support of prohibiting D.C.’s use of local funds on abortion and needle-exchange programs. The protest’s Facebook page states that the event will be conducted in “a sanitary and respectful way” and have reminded participants to “not leave mysterious bags around DC, whether it is the Speaker’s house or government buildings” — but not everyone is thrilled, according to Jonah Goodman, one of the two organizers.

“What a lot of commenters are missing is we are not protesting the Government shut down,” said Goodman. “We are protesting that Congress controls D.C.’s budget and with a shut down closes our tax payer funded services.”

The goal of the protest, says Goodman, is to bring national attention to three bills put forward by Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton — H.R. 345, the D.C. Budget Autonomy Act; H.R. 884, the D.C. Fiscal Year 2011 Local Funds Continuation Act; and H.R. 980, the D.C. Local Funds Continuation Act — each of which would remove the requirement that Congress maintain oversight over the budget of the District of Columbia, preventing the city from having to shut down trash collection (among other services) when the federal government can’t agree on a budget.

Once D.C. earns its budget autonomy, then “the House can go back to bickering about the federal budget,” said Goodman.
