Rep. Rich McCormick introduces bill to return part of Virginia to D.C.

Rep. Rich McCormick's 'Make DC Square Again Act' aims to restore D.C.'s original boundaries by returning Arlington and Alexandria from Virginia, potentially reshaping political dynamics.
The bill responds to Virginia's recent Democratic-backed redistricting, which strengthens the party's grip on congressional representation.
Critics, including Rep. Donald Beyer, argue the measure undermines local representation and could be seen as an attempt at voter suppression.
