NORTH CAROLINA JOINS THE UNION AS THE 12TH STATE
On this day in history, November 21, 1789, North Carolina made a
significant contribution to the formation of the United States by
becoming the 12th state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. This
pivotal moment in American history marked North Carolina's
official entry into the Union and further solidified the
foundation of the newly established nation.
The ratification of the Constitution by North Carolina signaled a
crucial step towards national unity, as the state joined its
fellow colonies in embracing the principles of the federal
government. This momentous decision allowed North Carolina to
participate fully in the democratic experiment that would shape
the course of American history for centuries to come. Today, we
commemorate this important milestone as a reminder of the
enduring strength and resilience of the United States' democratic
ideals.

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY: THE 1993 DECISION TO KEEP D.C. OUT OF
STATEHOODOn November 21st, 1993, a significant chapter in
American political history unfolded as the U.S. House of
Representatives voted against granting statehood to the District
of Columbia. This decision marked a pivotal moment in the ongoing
debate over the status of the nation's capital, which has long
sought equal representation and full statehood.
The District of Columbia, with its unique position as the heart
of the federal government, has been a subject of contention for
decades. Advocates argued that D.C. residents deserved the same
rights and representation as citizens of the 50 states, while
opponents expressed concerns over the potential political
implications of adding a new state. This historic vote in 1993,
ultimately denying statehood to the nation's capital, serves as a
reminder of the enduring debate surrounding D.C.'s status and its
significance in the broader context of American democracy.
