Today will be the first Senate hearing for DC Statehood since 1993. DC’s Mayor and non-voting delegate, Eleanor Holmes-Norton, are stepping up to the plate in hopes that the Nation’s Capital could receive home-rule.
From the outside looking in, people do not understand what a big deal this is…however, I do not anticipate a different outcome. 😦

Senator Coburn eight minutes into DC statehood hearing: bill has “no chance of success in this chamber and is dead on arrival in the House.” Awesome…NOT!
