Congress and President Obama, support to the proposal of DC Delegate Norton to make DC a State.
Why is this important?
I live in Washington, DC, not a state, not part of a state. I have no representation in the Senate or House and my vote can be over-ruled by representatives of states with fewer voters than DC. I live in the only country in the world where the citizens of the capital have fewer rights than people outside the capital. Many of us feel like we have been sidelined and have no voice in the current political discourse.
