As a matter of fact, if it were up to me, there would be the appropriate numbers of members of the House and two Senators. There are states that are smaller than the District and have that kind of representation. A lot of excuses have been made for why we can’t do it or should not do it. Some of them based on the Constitution. Others, I think based on the fear that if we were to have, say, two democratic Senators and a democratic House member, they would be in fact Democrats, as opposed to Republicans. And a lot of people, particularly Republicans, are concerned about that. Um. I just think it’s the right thing to do. I think you ask people to pay taxes, obey the laws and do all of the things they’re supposed to do, but yet they still don’t have full voting rights. I just have a major problem with that and I think it goes against this thing we call Democracy. http://www.askyourlawmaker.org/answers/i-have-always-been-voting-rights-dc-delegate.-matter-fact%2C-if-it-were-me%2C-there-would-be-app Wed, 21 May 2008 17:45:00 -0500 EW Johnson 1319 at http://www.askyourlawmaker.org
