Get Congress' attention: Shut down bridges

WTOP reports:
A candidate running for the District's non-voting delegate's seat in Congress has a drastic idea to get lawmakers focused on D.C. statehood.

Doug Sloan recommends shutting down the commuter routes into the city.

"If you really want to talk civil unrest, if you want to talk about shutting the city down and doing something that's really going to get Congress' attention, there's about six or seven bridges between D.C. and Virginia," Sloan said on The Politics Program With Mark Plotkin on WTOP Friday.
If Sloan espoused limit government , he'd be called an extremist. But, when you promote statism: the MSM calls you "progressive".
