Since 1801, the residents of the District of Columbia have had no representation in Congress. Nor have they been able to govern themselves without interference from Congress.
Join us to learn about Washington, DC and why it should be a state.
Anne Anderson, chair of the League of Women Voters of Washington DC’s Committee for Full Rights for D.C. Citizens, will be our speaker.
She will discuss:
• Who Lives in DC?
• How DC is Governed?
• What does Congress have to do with DC Local Affairs?
• What rights do DC Citizens have?
• How does the World View DC’s Lack of Rights?
• What effect did all this have on the response to the January insurrection at the Capital?
The talk will be followed by a Q&A.
League members are invited to register for this Zoom presentation.
Everyone is invited to watch live on YouTube.
