Without statehood, D.C. remains vulnerable to this kind of dangerous political exploitation.
President Trump's deployment of the National Guard to DC and takeover of the local police department is baseless and an abuse of power.
The people of DC shouldn't be forced to live in occupied, militarized communities.
for the purpose of amending the constitution to ensure equal representation, reduce the size of DC to a few core federal buildings and then declare the remaining 120+ neighborhoods as states
I am FOR DC statehood. Where do I sign to make it so? We don't need politicians for that!
Well it doesn't seem like statehood status will defer Trump. He has already voiced his intentions to occupy a number of other blue State cities. Armed with his control of the FBI, National Guard and ever expanding ICE Brown Shirt goons.
