So you think that working for the federal government should be grounds for your disenfranchisement?
Also, the idea that 2 senators from DC (in a body of 102 senators) could unilaterally enact some sort of anti-state government or pro-executive branch agenda is absurd for obvious reasons.
Wrong.
Can you tell us how 0.6% of Congress is going to take over the government and destroy the separation of powers?
Mitch McConnell?
With that reasoning, I guess we should’ve just not made Kentucky a state.
That has nothing to do with DC statehood anyway
Can you imagine someone from DC being a Senate Majority Leader, using their power to stomp on the will of states and strengthen the federal government? I can. And it could be disastrous.
The hell are you talking about? What would make a Senator (or potential Majority Leader) from DC more powerful than one from any other state?
