DC is the only place in the contiguous United States where US Citizens have no representation. That needs to be fixed. Give them the representation they are entitled to as citizens of the United States. #DCStatehood

As we approach Tax Day, we wanted to share some facts about DC’s taxation without representation. DC residents pay nearly triple the federal taxes per person of the highest-paying state in the country, and still have no vote in Congress.

DC now operates as if it were a state with the exception of federal control over courts and is unable to call out their national guard as happened on Jan 6th when there was over an hour delay before Pence approved calling out the Gaurd. #DCStatehood

DC has 712,000 residents, more than Vermont and Wyoming and comparable with other states including Delaware, Alaska, and several others, but they have no voting representatives in the senate or congress. #DCStatehood

On this date in 1961: The 23rd Amendment (allowing DC to vote for President) hit the required approval of 2/3 of state legislatures (thx OH & KS!) & went into effect
This map shows how states voted. Gray states (see a pattern?) never got around to it (Really, VA?!?) #DCStatehood
