DC deserves democracy, and we need your help to fight for our constitutional rights. Join the growing movement for DC statehood. Sign up at togetherfordc.org/
Rooted in the conviction that “when democracy is undermined in the nation’s capital, it is undermined everywhere,” the coalition (Together for DC) is organizing a people-powered solidarity movement with D.C. residents and neighbors from all 50 states. demos.org/blog/dc-residents-…
Washington did not drift into disenfranchisement. It was disenfranchised, deliberately, at the moment its Black residents were gaining power.

"After 250 years, democracy should leave no American behind."
Powerful words from @Wade4Justice. #DCStatehood now.

Thank you @CoryBooker for speaking up for #DCstatehood! DC residents have the right to elect our government representatives without threats of a federal takeover.

Threatening to take away our rights because you don’t like who we vote for is authoritarian and anti-American. The right to vote for representation is fundamental to democracy.
President Trump said he might “take back” D.C. depending on who wins the mayoral race in the city, stating he would be opposed to Janeese Lewis George winning next week’s Democratic primary. notus.org/metro/trump-dc-tak…
DC is on the frontlines of Trump’s escalating attacks on democracy. Threats like these start here because DC isn’t a state–but what’s next?
Attacks on DC’s autonomy do not just harm DC residents. They weaken the promise of democracy for all of us and normalize federal overreach that can (and has) spread to other communities nationwide. We need allies in other states to join our fight: togetherfordc.org/
DC 👏 Statehood 👏 Now! Washington, DC is the only democratic national capital in the world whose residents do not have equal voting and representation rights. We’re uniting to change that.
Last night, DC residents gathered in SE to celebrate our commitment to winning statehood and the launch of our campaign to rally out-of-state allies for this fight. #Together4DC
