  • Amen.

    The amendment should strike that portion of the Constitution that created a Federal District.

    The territory would revert back to Virginia and Maryland and the people would become citizens of those states.

    But note that no one on the "taxation w/o representation" side really wants that.

    I wonder why?

  • Unconstitutional is right. If D.C. residents want representation that bad, they should fighting for an amendment.

  • I wonder if this battle was being fought durring the Bush administration? This probbbaly has nothing to do with rights and more to do with the amount of Republican votes.

  • Let's just give DC state hood it could be like a city state.

  • Why does the womans voice keep cutting out?

  • first
