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.

Granting statehood to every 571,000 person entity (less than the size of a congressional district) that wants it is absurd. With that line of reasoning, New York City could become a dozen states.
