No. Aside from the central district where the capital is located, the rest of DC should be returned to Maryland. We need to make sure DC is never made a state with 2 senators.
They complain about not having representation in congress; solve it by making them part of Maryland. Not a state of their own, as Democrats promise to do once they regain power.
How about using eminent domain to take land from people who live there for ‘government purposes’ & then tear down the housing. Make people move to a nearby state. That preserves the District & prevents the Dems from making it a state, as no one LIVES there.
We don’t want DC.
We have enough misery as it is.
