House Democrats will vote to make Washington D.C. a state - and rename the District of Columbia the Douglass Commonwealth.

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. (nigger...TG)

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

House Democrats are poised to approve Washington, D.C., becoming the nation's 51st state in a historic vote scheduled for Friday.

Washington the 'District of Columbia' would be no longer, the bill's language says, as the new state would be referred to as 'Washington, Douglass Commonwealth' - swapping out Italian explorer Christopher Columbus for Maryland-born abolitionist Frederick Douglass.
