Democrat Controlled House Approves Bill to Declare This As the 51st State of America

Shortly before the weekend last week, the House Democrats passed a bill that would make the District of Columbia the 51st state in the union.

This received only Democratic support of course, and even then not all Democrats supported it.

One thing to always keep in mind whenever there is an odd vote for something like this, you need to stop and ask what their motive is behind voting for such a thing, because you can always bet that they're up to no good.

The reason why the Democrats want to make the District of Columbia its own state is because it is Democrat-controlled. That means that as a state they would get to appoint Senators and House Representatives. Being a liberal area, this means that the Democrats would get more Democrats in those seats.

The bill, introduced by DC's nonvoting House member, Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, would shrink the federal capital to a small area encompassing the White House, Capitol building, Supreme Court, and other federal buildings along the National Mall. The rest of the city would become the 51st state, named the Washington, Douglass Commonwealth after abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

The bill passed with a vote of 232-180. Rep. Collin Peterson of Minnesota was the only Democrat to join Republicans in voting against it. Independent Rep. Justin Amash of Michigan also voted no.

The bill would grant DC two senators and make the existing sole House representative a voting member.

I'll tell you this right now, there is no way that this is going to happen while we have a Republican-controlled Senate and Donald Trump as the President.

"DC will never be a state," Trump said in the interview. "You mean District of Columbia, a state? Why? So we can have two more Democratic — Democrat senators and five more congressmen? No thank you. That'll never happen."

Democrats are also pulling to try and make Puerto Rico a state as well for the very same reason.
