In another dirty trick to cheat and give two US senators and one US congressional seat to a small city of far less the the population of Fairfax County that does not meet any qualifications to be a state.

No matter what Never Vote For The Democrat If anything should be done with DC it should be given back to Maryland with a small Federal District of just the US Capitol the White House and the mall in it . To cede it back to Maryland would require approval of Maryland's state house which is controlled by Democrat's who will say no as they want two extreme far left US senators to pack the senate and make it easier for Democrats to take the majority there to confirm or deny all federal judges and justices so they can rig the laws of the land for the leftists.
Just to understand how crooked Democrats are , no measure to cede the District back to Maryland ever comes up, its always for statehood for those two deck stacking senators
All The Democrats in the House voted yes of course to break the constitution and all the Republicans voted NO as They should !
No city alone should every be a state .This is an unconstitutional act as the founders demanded DC to be a Federal District where no one who lived there can vote .
In any event the house bill will not get heard in the US Senate which shows you why you must vote to throw as many Democrats out of office this November if you value your freedom and thus your life.
Never Let The Democrats take any house of congress or the White House ! VOTE !
