This mural in Adams Morgan says "If you lived here you'd be home now. But you still couldn't vote."If you were not aware, DC does not have any voting representatives in congress, although it looks like that may change soon.
Unlike some places, Puerto Rico for example, that don't have voting rights, DC residents pay full federal taxes. Hence, our DC license plates say "taxation without representation."
Even worse, all our local governments decisions can be reversed by the congress, even though we have no representation.
