Proponents of District of Columbia representation in Congress should try to craft a solution that will be mutually acceptable to both Democrats and Republicans.

The recent plan to give D.C. full voting representation in the House of Representatives is much-needed, ingenious and blatantly unconstitutional.

Taxation with representation in D.C. could mean a constitutional amendment.

The District of Columbia is also the "infant mortality capital of America"--the population center in which a baby is most likely to die during his or her first year of life.
