  • Never before have our chances for DC Statehood been so strong. Be a part of history and make sure Congress sees our determination to end the injustice of our taxation without representation. We must witness and support HR 51, the Washington DC Admission Act, clearing the final hurdle so our bill goes to the full House. Be in the Rayburn HOB Rm 2154 at 10:00 on Feb 11th. Visit ShowUp4DC.com to learn more and get involved! #DCStatehood

 

  • On September 19, 2019 democracy loving people filled the halls of the Rayburn Office Building, filled two overflow rooms, and filled a park outside with a huge screen to witness the Oversight Committee hearing of the Washington DC Admission Act, HR51. All to make clear: we want DC Statehood NOW. We must follow through on Feb 11th to see our bill clear the final hurdle before the full House vote. Join us Feb 11th #DCStatehood

 

  • DC is home to 27,900 veterans who have no representation in Congress. As Congress debates issues of war and peace, it is outrageous that these vets have no representation. End this injustice now. #ShowUp4DC on Feb 11th as the Washington DC Admission Act passes its final hurdle in the Oversight Committee and heads to the full House for a historic vote.

 

  • Close to 6,000 youth will turn 18 in DC this year and will have no Senators or voting member of the House on their first ballot. Unfair! #ShowUp4DC Feb 11th to support the Washington DC Admission Act for the final hurdle before it goes to the full House of Representatives for its historic vote.
