In each case, there is a larger issue behind the discussion, namely minority party control of the Senate, which has become an abuse of power under the filibuster. 

People are now looking at these statehood options to return some balance of power back to the Senate.

Only thing I see in common is that there a few people (mostly not Democrats) are concerned that more Democratic voters will be get representation in the form of senators.

But the gqp never seems to want to change their message to get more votes they just want to change the voting to keep themselves in charge with less and less support/number of voters behind them.  Always changing things when they can't get their way.
