Statehood For The Nation`s Capital Is Long Overdue E-mail

On July 29, 1990, Stephen Chapman made the case in the Chicago Tribune for statehood for the District of Columbia. He found that case for changing the status of D.C. "impossible to deny." He found the real objections to D.C. statehood to be political not philosophical and in the end racial.

Obama Fails to Mention D.C. Statehood During State of the Union E-mail

The Washington Informer reported that "(t)he fight for the political rights of the District of Columbia was noticeably absent during President Obama's second State of the Union address.... Obama, who said during the 2008 campaign for president that he would support statehood for the District of Columbia if elected, has yet to prove to many District residents and political officeholders that he is serious about helping the city's residents reach that goal."
