Federal Unions Plan To March On Capitol Hill

•One of the biggest federal unions plans to march on Capitol Hill this week. The Interior Department is going to redo the "drum major" quote on the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington. The current paraphrased quote — called "misleading" by some — will go down. The full text from King's 1968 sermon in Atlanta will go up. The National Park Service says it is exploring a range of funding options. But it aims to finish the work by next January. It will have to remove some of the granite stone upon which the current text is etched. Agencies leaders met with the King family earlier this month.
