This was in Texas A&M Today
What would happen to Congress if DC became a 51st state?
Obviously a very liberal opinion based article. You can easily pick up the hatred of Republicans in it.
I'm not sure everything he says is correct. I thought the residents of DC vote as residents of Maryland or Virginia?
He said they pay more in federal taxes than the rest of the country. But how is that possible?
And he also has a chart that shows potential House seat changes pending the 2020 Census. This chart shows NO seat changes for California which surprises me because of the "mass exodus" from that state that we've all heard about. (as a side note, I thought it was either Project Veritas or the Heritage Foundation that showed if California didn't count the illegals they would lose 5-7 House seats which is why they are fighting the US citizen question on the census.)
