D.C residents meet all the requirements of statehood. They pay their taxes, serve on juries, are forced to sign up for the draft, but in the United States Congress, they have no voice. During the January 6th insurrection, had Washington D.C already been a state, they would have been able to call on the national guard and help prevent the events that took place. Instead, their hands were tied. Make no mistake about it, even with our slim majority, Republicans will continue to doing everything in their power to stop D.C residents from receiving full representation. People across the country are speaking out in favor of D.C statehood and we have real momentum. We need to do everything in our power to amplify the voices of D.C. residents by joining the call for D.C Statehood today.
Voting is one of the most sacred rights in our democracy. It’s wrong that Congress would allow 700,000 people to go without it because of political calculations. We’ve never been closer to making D.C statehood a reality, but we need to add your voice. Thanks for signing our petition. — Tre Tre Graves, Campaign Organizer ![]() |
