A state representative has introduced a bill that would make Chicago the 51st state. I understand that it is getting some support. Personally, I'm ok with it as long as they build a wall around it and make Chicago pay for it.

I'm not for it. They'd get two more senators.

True Norm, but you can bet your last $ that the rest of Illinois would have two conservative senators.

Chicago can vote all they want, including the dead people. Congress has to approve it. I don’t see it happening Neither do I see California splitting. Wouldn’t mind seeing the liberal coastal cities become their own state and have the rest of Cali along with San Diego be another state.

Doesn't matter fellas. In 12 years life as we know it will end, according to AOC. Been a pleasure sharing this cyber space with y'all.
