51st State Commission Establishment Act of 2010 Approved E-mail

Bill 18-0177 was introduced by Council Members Harry thomas, Michael Brown, and Yvette Alexander on March 3, 2009.  It was co-sponsored by Council Members Graham, Kwame Brown, Catania, Cheh, Wells, Barry, Bowser, Mendelson and Gray.  A public hearing was held on July 8, 2009 (see article entitled "July 8, 2009 Hearing on 51st State Commission Establishment Act of 2009" under Issues/D.C. Council Actions).

The full Council approved the bill on first reading on December 15, 2010 and the final reading/vote occurred on January 5, 2010.  The vote was 10 in favor with three members absent (Barry, Bowser, and Cheh). The bill was transmitted to the Mayor on January 11, 2010 and he signed it on January 25, 2010.  The act was transmitted to Congress on February 1, 2010 and published in the February 5, 2010 D.C. Register (vol. 57, page 1183).

The act creates a 51st State Commission the purpose of which is to "educate regarding, advocate for, promote, and advance the proposition of, statehood for the District of Columbia" to D.C. residents and residents of the 50 states.  The Commission is to "conduct a full and complete study  of the necessary and appropriate legislation and administrative action" needed to make D.C. a state.

The Commission will have 28 members, who shall serve without compensation, including the District's Delegate to the House of Representatives (or his or her designee), the Mayor and Council (or their designees), D.C. statehood Congressional Delegation (or their designees), a chairman with a background in constitutional law, one member from each ward to be appointed by the ward Council member, and the Executive Director of the Washington, D.C. Historical Society. The ward members' term shall run concurrent with the Council period of the Council in which they are appointed.

The Commission shall elect a nine member Executive Board which shall include the chairman. The Commission is to "give special consideration to the relationship that should be developed to secure and maintain any special federal interest in the new state" and shall submit to Congress and the Council detailed reports with findings and recommendations within 180 days of its first meeting. The Commission shall also recommend programs and other initiatives to educate and promote statehood.

The Mayor and Council must appoint the members within 45 days of the effective date of the act.  Within 90 days of the effective date of the act, the Commission must adopt rules and procedures governing its meetings and decision-making process.  The Commission must hold at least 6 meetings each fiscal year and hold its initial organization meeting upon appointment of 3/4th of its members.

No budget or funding for the Commission was included in the act.

A D.C. Statehood Commission and D.C. Compact Commission had been authorized in the Statehood Initiative approved by District voters in November 1980 were created as a result of the final enabling legislation, D.C. Law 3-171, as amended.  In 1985, the two commissions became one.  After the 1993 defeat of the D.C. statehood bill in Congress, the Commission's budget was dramatically decreased and its activities severely curtailed. It has been dormant since the mid 1990's.
