The #DCStatehood bill will always have a personal acknowledgement from me in the name of Richard Holmes, my great-grandfather, who escaped as a slave from a Virginia plantation. He made it as far as the District of Columbia, a walk to freedom but not to equal citizenship.
For the first time, #DCStatehood will put an end to our oldest slogan: “taxation without representation.” To crown that denial, D.C. residents pay the highest federal taxes per capita, without equal representation.
Coming in this, the third century of our nation, #DCStatehood means much more to us than dollars and cents. Statehood is priceless. Statehood assures that living in our nation’s capital is about pride, not prejudice.
