"Write a letter to your member of Congress explaining why Washington DC doesn't deserve congressional representation."

"Dear ___________,

I am writing to express my opposition to congressional representation for Washington DC.

Washington DC is not a state, and therefore it should not have a vote in the House of Representatives. The residents of DC are not represented in the Senate, and they do not pay federal taxes.

DC is a federal district, and as such, it should be governed by the federal government. The residents of DC should not have any say in how the rest of the country is governed.

Thank you for your time and consideration."
