I would be happy with our Delegate becoming Congresswoman and being allowed to vote on the floor. Getting 2 senators would be ideal, but would not happen.

D.C. originally was formed by land from Maryland and Virginia. The Virginia land went back to Virginia. If its that important to give D.C. residents representation, cede the land back to Maryland, and they'll be able to vote in statewide elections, and they'll get 1 representative.
That would never happen. But IMO everyone should be represented by voting power in the legislature, and its really unfair that half a million people arent. I know that DC residents could move to a state if they dont like it, but why should you have to? Whats th big deal?
