LinkLinks Washington Post: D.C. leaders herald Senate statehood bill despite steep odds By Editor On Jan 24, 2023 Last updated Jan 24, 2023 12 Share Sen. Thomas R.

Bowser and D.C. leaders on Tuesday to reintroduce a bill to give nearly 700,000 D.C. residents statehood, pushing the long-sought goal in a year marking the 50th anniversary of the city’s limited home rule — but also in a year when statehood has virtually no chance of succeeding. 12 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
