Which is why D.C. statehood is such a horrible idea. Giving one city the federal representation of a state is obviously outsized power. I've yet to hear an argument for why absorption into an existing state, which would solve all representation issues without providing D.C. undue influence at the Federal level, is less preferable than giving a single city two US Senators.
