There is a simple solution to the DC statehood issue that has historic precedence. In 1846 Congress voted to re-cede the land which is now Arlington County to the state of Virginia. If the goal of the Democrats is to give DC residents representation, this is the easiest way. They can just vote to return the land to Maryland, if Maryland will take it. Of course, this does not provide two permanent Democrats in the Senate, which is the real goal of the Democrats.
