[WardFive] DC Statehood Hearing in U.S. Senate -June 21, 2021 @10:00AM

Tomorrow June 22, 2021, the US Senate's Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs will hold a DC Statehood hearing, "Examining D.C Statehood" at 10:00AM  (SD-342 Senate Dirksen Building & via videoconference).  As many of you know, DC Statehood was passed in the U.S. House of Representatives earlier this year.  Now it is time for the U.S. Senate to do the same.  Tomorrow's hearing is the starting point.  Please join us tomorrow for a pre-hearing rally at 8:30AM (details below).

 

Thank you.  Franklin.
