GEORGE WILL
WASHINGTON The Democratic-controlled Congress will soon try to transform part of the District of Columbia, which today is about one-eighteenth the size of Rhode Island but 18.9% larger than Denver International Airport, into a state. This will involve theatrical and constitutional difficulties.
The Democrats’ theatrical challenge will be to keep straight faces while insisting that their motivation is altruistic: indignation about D.C. residents paying federal taxes without being fully represented in Congress. In 1984, President Ronald Reagan came within 3,761 Minnesota votes of carrying all 50 states, but won less than 14% of Washington D.C. votes. In 2020, Donald Trump won 5.4% of the D.C. vote. San Francisco will never vote Republican but will do so before D.C. does. Democrats insist, however, that this is irrelevant to them: Their interest is the inviolable principle “no taxation without representation.”

The GOP âclimate push that mostly leaves out climate
House Republicans introduced a new climate agenda that promotes fossil fuels and speculative technologies, while leaving out real emissions reduction targets.
On April 19, Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy announced the beginning of a week-long campaign to promote the Republican âalternativeâ climate agenda. âDemocrats often dismiss Republicans as being disinterested in addressing global climate change. This is just false,â he said in a video posted to Twitter.
In the video, he announced the roll-out of roughly three dozen bills that âfocus on solutions that make American energy cleaner, more affordable, and also reduce emissions around the world.â
