Eleanor Norton actually said...

"D.C. Statehood is a racial justice issue. And racism kills."

"May I predict that once that occurred, lightning fast, you will see an amendment go through the Congress to repeal the 23rd Amendment giving us, the District of Columbia, three electoral votes."

"It is simply, I think, unconstitutional and un-American to be asking how people are going to vote once they're admitted."

"It is shameful that anyone would claim to support democracy and freedom and oppose statehood."
