Sen. Tom Carper Announces Bill To Give D.C. Statehood

Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) recently introduced a bill aimed at making Washington, D.C. a state.

He took to Twitter Wednesday to discuss his efforts to “give the over 700,000 D.C. residents a voice, vote and full representation in Congress.”

For years, I have fought alongside @EleanorNorton and @MayorBowser to make #DCStatehood a reality and to give the over 700,000 D.C. residents a voice, vote, and full representation in Congress.

Today, I’m proud to introduce #S51 to make D.C. the 51st state in our Union. pic.twitter.com/PFBHULC6lj

Today, we’re introducing #S51 in the United States Senate because it is past time to make #DCStatehood a reality. https://t.co/XM5AcpR5gz
