After the president seized control of DC Police, an unprecedented action, and deployed the DC National Guard without DC's consent, Sen. Senator Chris Van Hollen & I announced we'll introduce our bills to permanently prevent either from happening again.   Statement: bit.ly/45t70MJ

The District deserves to be the 51st state #dcstatehood

Our love letter to DC 💌 We love this city, & this is how we show our love. In times like these, everyone in DC has to stay united & look out for each other. We’ll keep making gear that reinforces our need for Statehood, Autonomy & Home Rule 👊🏽 Stay strong DC!

The Washington Spirit works hard, plays hard and wins! Keep making DC Proud!

Thank you to ABC News for having me on yesterday to discuss what the federal government SHOULD be doing to help us fight crime in DC, and how this authoritarian power grab by the President clearly demonstrates the need for DC statehood

President Trump made a grave error on several levels by taking over MPD and deploying the DC National Guard without DC's agreement.   He violated the principle of consent of the governed, on which America was founded, and he unintentionally made the strongest possible case for

To those who say a call for DC statehood is politically naive during this time, I commend the words of Frederick Douglass, a great Washingtonian in his later years: “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has, and it never will.”

No emergency. No excuse. Crime in D.C. is down 26% & at a 30-year low. Federalizing MPD without cause isn’t just unlawful — it’s undemocratic. 🗳 #HandsOffDC #FreeDC #DCStatehood

NEW: Washington DC just sued Trump for his federal takeover of its police department.

We thank you!

Onward towards #dcstatehood ☀️

We have a lot to be proud of in Washington, but what I am most proud of are our people and values. And what I have seen over this past week is a city that knows how to stick together. Read my full letter to DC residents:

"Free D.C.! Free D.C." Chants of protest against Trump break out in the 51st minute of tonight's Washington Spirit game at Audi Field.

Let’s be clear: the National Guard troops, federal law enforcement, and D.C. police cannot violate the Constitution or the D.C. Home Rule Act. Understanding your rights can help you make the best decision for yourself if approached by law enforcement.

We’re sharing an important The Washington Post link—“As Trump takes over D.C.’s police, here’s what law enforcement can and cannot do”—explaining your rights if stopped by any law enforcement in D.C. Please read and stay informed. #FREEDC #DCSTATEHOOD washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/…

Give it the fuck back.

American soldiers and airmen policing American citizens on American soil is #UnAmerican.

Happy Sunday! Sadly, the residents of DC have risen to another day lacking STATEHOOD! We need full autonomy for the people of DC. We need DC STATEHOOD, now! #dcstatehood #freedc

DC pays the most in federal income taxes per capita in the nation, yet DC was excluded from a health program in the BBB, likely depriving the District of $100s of millions.   I introduced a bill to make DC eligible, the same way states are.
