House Democrats are poised to pass a bill that would make Washington, D.C., the nation's 51st state

D.C. would no longer stand for District of Columbia and instead be the 'Douglass Commonwealth,' named for the Maryland-born abolitionist Frederick Douglass

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer explained that Douglass, a Marylander, would balance out George Washington, a Virginian

The bill is expected to pass the Democrat-led House, but go nowhere in the Republican-ruled Senate

Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton, D.C.'s non-voting House members, said she expected the GOP to lose the Senate and the White House in November

Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden tweeted Thursday afternoon that he approved of D.C. statehood

Republicans have been averse to the move because the city is overwhelmingly Democratic and statehood would likely give them two Democratic senators

This is so typical of Democrat pandering which will, passed or not, do nothing to improve the lives of blacks.
