John: There are 700,000 people in Washington, D.C. who pay
federal taxes but have no voice in Congress.

Yup, that’s taxation without representation.

Congress give D.C. residents the representatives they deserve >>

[ [link removed] ]STATEHOOD NOW

Residents in D.C. pay taxes, serve in the military, take part in their
communities, and contribute to our country, all without the right to
representation.

D.C. Statehood should be a top priority for every member of Congress. But
Republicans will do whatever it takes to keep D.C. from becoming the 51st
state.

Why?

Because they know D.C. residents lean Democratic.

If D.C. was a state, we’d probably gain two more Democratic Senators.
Brett Kavanaugh wouldn’t have been confirmed to the Supreme Court. Mitch
McConnell wouldn’t have been able to pack our courts with right-wing
judges. DACA would be safe. Roe v. Wade would be safe. Health care would
be safe.

Make no mistake: this is just another Republican attempt to suppress the
right to vote. So, it’s on us to turn up the heat and add public pressure
to this important issue.

[ [link removed] ]Washington D.C. residents deserve an equal voice in our government. If
you agree, sign your name now to demand Congress support D.C. statehood >>

[ [link removed] ]STATEHOOD NOW

Voting is one of the most sacred rights in our democracy. It’s wrong that
Congress would allow 700,000 people to go without it just because of where
they live.

We’ve never been closer to making D.C. statehood a reality, but we need to
add your voice to the fight.

Thanks for signing our petition.
