Petition to all Members of Congress:
Please correct a two-century-old wrong and give the 618,000 Americans who live in our national capital the same right to self-government enjoyed by every other American by admitting the residential and commercial parts of the District of Columbia as the 51st state of the United States of America. Please co-sponsor and vote for H.R. 265, the New Columbia Admission Act.
Why is this important?
My petition is about the last great civil rights issue, granting the 618,000 Americans who live in our national capital the same right to self-government enjoyed by every other American, by making the District of Columbia the 51st state.
