I think that citizens of the District of Columbia should engage in massive resistance until they get full autonomy and Congressional representation. CMV.

Currently, the District of Columbia has a population of about 635,000, more than Vermont and Wyoming.  Nevertheless, it is given zero voting representation in Congress; moreover, Congress is allowed to overturn local laws that have been rightfully passed by the DC Council and signed by the Mayor.  Both of these situations are extremely unjust, and I think the best way to bring an end to them would be to engage in a campaign of massive civil disobedience.  Every day until Congress relents, people should chain themselves to the doors of the House office buildings, disrupt the metro station that serves Congress, and in general make a giant scene.

Any change in the representation or autonomy of DC would be a long, drawn out process, and a disruptive protest for that length of time would ultimately cause more harm than good. 

Consider that both of the issues, congressional representation and autonomy of DC, are US constitutional issues in the end.

The US Constitution states that: 

1. Congressional voting powers are given to representatives from States, and DC does not belong to any state.
2. Congress has legislative power over the district in which the seat of the federal government resides.

Any US constitutional amendment will likely take many months or even years to pass, and a prolonged disruptive protest in the capital will likely affect:

1. The Economy (locally and of the entire country due to uncertainty and impaired government functionality)
2. Decrease producity and efficiency of vital government functions (Medicare/Medicaid/Food Stamps or other services people depend on to survive)
3. Civil unrest (may lead to increased crime in DC and nationally)
4. Foreign relations (disruption in the capital will be perceived as weakness)
5. Security of the immediate area and politicians (easier for enemies of the US to forment violence or hide amongst protestors)

Disruptive protest in the seat of national government is a bad idea for these reasons. Such a protest would ultimately damage the entire country for the benefit of a few hundred thousand.

Note: Also, determining who gets representation and how much is a enormous challenge. After all, should DC get senators or only House representatives? If so, does it receive 2 senators like a state? What about other federally controlled zones/terratories without representation? Questions abound, none of which are easy.
