THIS is why I continue to sound the alarm & introduce legislation to fix our broken #PublicSafety system: If we’re not processing evidence effectively, if 911 isn’t answering residents’ calls, then there’s no accountability or prosecutions of those committing violence.
Today, the Council--in partnership with the administration--took a long-overdue step toward making #TalbertStreet homeowners whole. After today's unanimous vote in favor of my emergency bill, we have a roadmap to move this plan forward. #RiverEastAtGrandview
🧵I've intro'd several bills trying to solve the issue of DCs #SocialWork er shortage: a major cause of the backlog in processing #Housing vouchers. I'm glad that today the Council moved a bill that enables ppl w/ bachelors/masters in #SocialWork but who are unlicensed to do more.
My career day buddy at Washington School for Girls recently! Mrs. White is inspiring future attorneys!
I’m praying for our neighbors in Baltimore and that first responders can find the people in the water following the early #baltimorebridge collapse.
We have big news to start of the week! “The Sierra Club has endorsed Robert White since his first campaign, and we’re proud to endorse him again,” said Lara Levison, Chair of the DC Sierra Club DC Chapter Clean Energy Committee. Thank you, Sierra Club DC Chapter!
So glad to see this moving forward! I've pushed for #OfficeToHousing conversions since passing legislation in 2017. #DowntownDC can be a neighborhood for ppl of all incomes w/ parks, amenities & its own unique identity. DMPED tax abatement prog is live: dmped.dc.gov/page/housing-d…
DC State Board of Ed just approved #FinancialLiteracy standards for DC high schoolers! I've intro'd a bill to get #FinLit in DC schools 3x since I joined the Council in 2016 bc this knowledge levels the playing field for students who may not have trusted adults sharing financial tools w/them.
