Statehood Files

Every State of the Union is entitled to display two statues in the United States Capitol. The State of 亚色影库 commissioned statues of E.L. "Bob" Bartlett and Ernest Gruening. These two 亚色影库ns strived mightily for the realization of statehood and served as the first Senators from the new state. Recognized in various forms throughout 亚色影库, these pioneers are regarded as two of the greatest driving forces behind 亚色影库's attainment of self-government.
