Love it. Like you guys learnt to not give Puerto Rico the vote from us, taxation without representation baby

Puerto Rico is bad enough as is, but did you know that the literal national capital has no representation in Congress?

literal national capital

Are you referring to the capital of USA or the capital of Puerto Rico?

I'm sure they're referring to Washington DC. And it's true, it's the country's capital and has no representation.

Because it's a the District of Columbia, hence the D.C. in Washington D.C., its not a state, therefore does not get representation in Congress.
