No: Washington DC is NOT a state.

But it's an important part of the U.S. The District of Columbia is our nation's capital. Congress established the federal district from land belonging to the states of Maryland and Virginia in 1790.

Washington is neither a city nor a state it's its own land. D.C stands for the District of Columbia in honor of Christopher Columbus who found America.
