The staff members of CM Silverman’s office are honored and grateful for the experience of having worked with you, Elissa Silverman. You are a passionate advocate for our city and its people, deeply committed to things that matter. We could not be prouder. Thank you, Elissa.

Parting words from Elissa Silverman at the last Legislative Meeting of Council Period 24, the end of her term. Read her full remarks: elissasilverman.com/final_remarks_…

“For decades, the alarm has been on. But we tune it out, except when the press amplifies it. And then we do the same thing again and again. We make some quick fixes. Let’s not cross our fingers and hope it will make the changes we need this time.” —Elissa Silverman on DCHA

A long time coming. Congratulations to Antonia and Ingrid and all the Domestic Workers who showed up over and over. The Council still has work ahead of it to *implement* this legislation. #DCDomesticWorkersBillofRights

'The fact of the matter is, we’ve known about deplorable housing conditions and DCHA dysfunction for decades. The alarm has been on since 1994, but we tune it out except when the press amplifies it.' Elissa Silverman’s remarks on @dc_housing emergency bill elissasilverman.com/silverman_rema…

Full bill text (fairly specific) is now on LIMS: lims.dccouncil.gov/Legislation/B2…

Thanks to all of you for your leadership and advocacy!

Capitol Hill and Hill Havurah🕍 are a great place to celebrate Hanukkah! With @CapitoHillBID Charles Allen Elissa Silverman #HappyHanukkah

Here are the details of Elissa Silverman's and Councilmember Brooke Pinto's DCHA bill, introduced last week.

The DCHA emergency proposal is unfair, but not to Bill. It's unfair to residents who are seeing every voice who stuck up for them removed without a hearing.

Shining light into the darkness on this first night, a rededication to hope and to fight for what is right amidst adversity

Happy Hanukkah DC to all who celebrate!

Wishing everyone peace and light! And a Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate.

As DC’s first independent, elected AG, I have made standing up for tenants and cracking down on slumlords one of my core priorities.

But there is no way to end tenant abuse and neglect in the District without addressing DC Housing Authority—the city’s biggest slumlord.

The permanent legislation being introduced today by Councilmember Brooke Pinto and Elissa Silverman restructures, reforms, and rebuilds D.C. Housing Authority.

ahead of an expected vote next week on bowser's emergency bill dissolving the DCHA board, pinto and silverman are introducing permanent legislation to reform the agency that would preserve voucher recipients/residents spots on the board dcist.com/story/22/12/14…

D.C. councilmembers Brooke Pinto and Elissa Silverman will introduce a bill reforming the troubled D.C. Housing Authority, competing with Bowser's reform bill.
