[1]: Despite having a population of over 700,000, Washington D.C. has zero representation in the Senate.
[2]: Democrats and Republicans have supported D.C. statehood for years – it’s pro-democracy to represent all Americans.
[3]: MAGA Republicans are fighting the Washington, D.C. Admission Act because it would add two Democratic Senators and crush their majorities for generations!
WOW: Congresswoman Norton of D.C. just introduced a D.C. statehood bill and 165 Democrats have already joined as co‑sponsors.
Statement of Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton on the Introduction of the Washington, D.C. Admission Act
“The nearly 700,000 D.C. residents, who have all the obligations of American citizenship, including paying all federal taxes and serving in the armed forces, are denied voting representation in Congress and full local self-government. This bill would give D.C. residents the voting representation in Congress and full local self-government they have been denied for more than 220 years.”
Friend, top Democrats like Amy Klobuchar are joining the fight and commanding Congress to take action on this critical bill:
