The New York Times:
The 51st State America Needs
"Democrats should make District of Columbia statehood a top priority if they win in November. Adding a star to the American flag for the district would be good for the Democratic Party and good for democracy."

We're all in -- and so are House Democrats! The House made history this summer when they took the first step to admit D.C. as the 51st state.

This is a promising glimpse of what's possible with our Democratic Majority. But if Republicans take the House, they'll undo all our progress. Will you chip in $5.10 to DIRECTLY support the Frontline Democrats fighting for our democracy?

John, consider this:

-D.C. is home to more people than Vermont or Wyoming -- and it's gaining on Alaska.
-D.C. pays more in federal taxes than 21 states.
-D.C. has one non-voting seat in the House, and ZERO in the Senate.

When pressing bills are up for a vote, we urge each other to call our Senators and Congresspeople -- D.C. residents have no one to call.

D.C. is a majority-minority community -- past Republican opposition to statehood has often been explicitly rooted in racism and aimed at denying folks their hard-won voting rights.

Our Democratic House Majority is standing up to centuries of injustice in order to finally end taxation without representation. Will you chip in $5.10 or an amount that makes sense for you to invest in this huge progress for our democracy?
