Story by Scott Taylor : 7 News - WJLA TV wjla.com/features/i-tea…

I’ve been briefed on the earthquake with an epicenter in New Jersey, and we are not reporting any major disruptions to DC residents at this time.

We will continue working with our regional and local partners to monitor and respond to potential impacts in the District.

Yesterday, I testified in support of our FY25 Budget.

We must make shared sacrifices and strategic investments to address a confluence of post-COVID factors and drive economic growth.
