H ello t here,

Democrats have finally introduced legislation in both the House and the Senate to make Washington, D.C. our 51st state and grant over 700,000 D.C. residents proper representation in Congress.

But as NBC News reports, Mitch McConnell and his fellow Republicans are doing everything they can to block statehood for D.C. indefinitely. The reason? "Any congressional representation would almost certainly be Democratic."

McConnell and the GOP have spent decades denying the American people the political representation they deserve. Whether through voter suppression tactics or by denying over 700,000 American citizens their constitutional rights -- Republicans have stayed in power by subverting our democracy.

We know it's going to be an uphill fight for D.C. residents to gain their voice -- especially when Republicans have the filibuster to block statehood efforts. But that's why today, we need to know if our supporters will stand with us. Please, let us know now where you stand:
Do you support giving D.C residents proper representation in Congress?
