Congratulations to Robert White on his primary win for DC Delegate! We at DC Vote are excited to get to work alongside Mr. White to elevate statehood as a national democracy issue, and fight for a vote for the DC Delegate & for 2 U.S. Senators too. #DCStatehood #LetDCVote

DC has no vote in Congress and no U.S. Senators, and now the President is threatening DC’s local election results. This isn’t hypothetical, it’s happening right now. DC needs statehood to be free from threats and interference once and for all. Repost to help spread the word. #DCStatehood #LetDCVote

Senator Warnock knows DC statehood is a voting rights issue. He called for statehood at the CAP Ideas Conference and is a co-sponsor of the DC Admission Act. Thank you, @warnock.senate.gov, for fighting for full representation for all Americans.

Thank you, @repstansbury.bsky.social, for standing up for DC residents at last week's H.R. 8801 hearing. On America's 250th birthday, the message is simple: taxation without representation is still wrong.

Join us for an activation call on voting rights and DC statehood. The Supreme Court just gave a green light to those trying to rig maps and reduce the power of Black voters. DC residents still have NO VOTE in Congress. Thursday, May 14 at noon | Zoom Register: act.dcvote.org/a/voting-rights

Today, King Charles invoked "no taxation without representation" before Congress — the same Congress where 700,000 DC residents still have no vote. 250 years later, nothing has changed. Make DC a state. #TaxationWithoutRepresentation #DCStatehood

DC Vote @dcvote.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

Forget making DC a square. Here's the map worth passing. H.R. 51 makes DC the 51st state and gives 700,000 residents full representation in Congress. #DCStatehood #PassHR51

DC freed enslaved people 8 months before the Emancipation Proclamation. That liberation was historic and incomplete. 700,000 DC residents still have zero votes in Congress and no protection from federal takeover. The work isn't done until DC is a state. #DCEmancipationDay #DCStatehood

🚨🚨 TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION is alive and well in the U.S.!!! 👀👀 D.C. residents who live in the nation's capital pay taxes but have no voting representation in Congress to help decide how our taxes are spent. As we work to fix our democracy, this HUGE hole needs urgent repair.

Flyer that says "I am a DC resident. I pay federal taxes. I have no vote in Congress." Picture of DC license plate saying "Taxation without Representation" Call to action: If you have representation, will you use it for me? Tell your members of Congress you support DC statehood."

The House passed H.R. 5103 218-206. Now it heads to the Senate — and we need to stop it there. This bill is federal overreach, plain and simple. Call your Senator at (202) 224-3121 and tell them to vote NO on the Safe and Beautiful Act. DC deserves better.
