John,

Washington D.C. is home to more than 700,000 Americans who have NO representation in the U.S. House or Senate.

That’s 700,000 Americans with no say over President Biden’s legislative agenda, no say on Supreme Court nominees, and no say over how their tax dollars are spent.

It’s undeniable: D.C. statehood is one of the most important fights of our time. Will you take action to expand our Democratic majorities so we can finally make D.C. a state?

If D.C. were a state, Democrats would be able to expand their majorities, confirm more judges, and finally do away with the filibuster. Most importantly – D.C’s 700,000 residents would get the representation they deserve.

But Republicans know that giving D.C. representation would weaken their undemocratic stranglehold on the Senate. It’s why every effort to establish statehood has been completely stonewalled by Mitch McConnell and the GOP.

It’s time to put a stop to Republican obstructionism. Will you make a grassroots contribution TODAY to help us grow our Democratic majorities and finally give 700,000 Washingtonians the representation they deserve?

With your help, we will win.
