The case that we actually make is for DC becoming the 51st state.

We elect local officials, we pass our laws, we have our own budget. We give more to the federal government than we get back. We pay taxes than most, more per capita than any place in America where larger than two states. We're literally down the street from the Congress , but we have no representation..
