As we enter a new Congress it’s time we renew our push to call out & call on those members of Congress mute on D.C. statehood. Let’s get to work making America great by making D.C. a state!
In the House, Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton recently introduced H.R. 51, with a record 155 original cosponsors. The cosponsor list is now at 189 and it continues to grow on a daily basis. In the Senate, Senator Tom Carper (D-DE) will soon introduce the D.C. Statehood bill but we need to pressure Senators thus far mute on the issue to cosponsor the Senate’s D.C. Statehood bill. So today, email these Senate staffers and request that their bosses cosponsor the D.C. Statehood bill. Here’s a script.
