Sample text

Hi friend -

As taxpaying American residents, we all deserve voting representation in Congress. The 700,000 residents of DC are without that vote and voice. The House Oversight and Reform will hear testimony for H.R. 51 - the Washington DC Admission Act. Join me at the Rayburn House Office Building for the hearing and #ShowUp4DC. Wear your favorite red and white and let's stand in solidarity. I believe full democracy and equality can be achieved with our support. I hope you can join me in person. If not, please promote via social media by using #ShowUp4DC. Together we can make DC the 51st state!
