    The House passed our #DCStatehood bill on June 26. The Senate has not yet acted. Our 705,000+ federal taxpaying residents deserve equal congressional voting rights and full local self-government. Retweet if you agree DC needs statehood now.pic.twitter.com/R0HT3RbT0M

        Wyoming has 578,000 residents and three voting members of the House and Senate. Vermont has 623,000 residents and three voting members of the House and Senate. D.C. has 705,000 residents and zero voting members of the House or Senate. #DCStatehood now.

        The United States is the only democratic country that denies the residents of the nation’s capital *both* voting rights in the national legislature and full local self-government. #DCStatehood now.

        DC pays more federal taxes per capita than any state and more total federal taxes than 22 states. The U.S. sends DC residents to war but denies them congressional voting rights and full local self-government. #DCStatehood now.

        An act of Congress admitted all 37 new states. There is no constitutional, financial, or historical reason Congress can’t or shouldn’t make DC a state. #DCStatehood now.

        The House passed our #DCStatehood bill in June. The Senate must stop denying our 705,000 federal taxpaying residents congressional voting rights and full local self-government. #DCStatehood now.

        I've been emailing you about the city failing me for a month, and you haven't acted. Imagine that.
