TheVoiceOfJoyce With over 750,000 people, DC is larger than many States. It deserves its own accountable police force and modern reforms for its citizens. DC should no longer be a Political pawn. The citizens deserve State hood. Puerto Rico should be next. Then unscrupulous investors can no longer overwhelm them with debt. 3 million can be fiscally governed and their infrastructure brought up to date , making a living wage for Everyone. Jobs & tourism is a good combination.
