The goals of our Civil Rights Movement will not be realized until D.C. statehood is achieved
“Congress has both the moral obligation and the constitutional authority to pass the D.C. statehood bill. This country was founded on the principles of no taxation without representation and consent of the governed, but D.C. residents are taxed without representation and cannot consent to the laws under which they, as American citizens, must live.”
– Eleanor Holmes Norton, Delegate to United States House of Representatives representing the District of Columbia
