Show your support for D.C. statehood >> [[link removed]]

John: The U.S. Census Bureau released new population data for the past decade, and Washington, D.C.’s growth rate nearly TRIPLED at 14.6%.

Here are some key stats to know:

*
Nearly
700,000
people
call
our
nation’s
capital
home.
*
D.C.’s
growth
rate
is
the
seventh
highest
in
the
entire
country
and
nearly
double
the
national
rate.
*
D.C.
now
has
a
larger
population
than
Wyoming,
Vermont
,
and
at
this
rate,
it
could
be
larger
than
Alaska
by
2030.

Last week, the House passed my bill to make D.C. our country’s 51st state, and now, the new Census numbers strengthen our case for statehood even more.

If you haven’t already, sign our petition and show your support for making D.C. our country’s 51st state and give long overdue representation to the nearly 700,000 tax-paying Americans who live in D.C. [[link removed]]

TC
