….one step closer
February 27, 2009 at 8:55 amDC
Media outlets across the District are getting excited about how the Senate passed a bill yesterday that would give DC a seat (yes, an actual voting seat) in the House. It looks like the bill is a bit tangled up with language that would affect the gun laws in the city so we will have to see how that all shakes out. Either way this is good news for DC and temporarily for Utah ( who would also get an additional seat until 2011 when the seat will go to whichever state is closest getting a new representative based on Census data). Joe, John – I’m looking at you on the Utah thing.

I’m stoked. One more seat to represent views other than mine! That’s one more chance for a Utahn to make an ass of themselves on a national stage making all of us look like rubes. Oh well, Go DC!
