Yesterday I was with the DC Dems to elect our delegates. For generations, Washingtonians had no say in Presidential elections. Now, we select our delegates to represent DC at the DNC convention. We still need statehood but today I’m proud to be represented by our delegates!

THIS is why I continue to sound the alarm & introduce legislation to fix our broken 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.

Thanks FOX 5 DC for having me on to discuss this AM. The mayor wants to ⬆️ sales tax & cut vital services. Yet this is this is the biggest budget in DC’s history. I’m pushing the mayor for plans to eliminate wasteful spending and deliver real improvements for residents.

This heart wrenching murder of an innocent man by 12 and 13 year olds must call us to urgent action. wjla.com/news/local/7ne…

Today, the Council--in partnership with the administration--took a long-overdue step toward making homeowners whole. After today's unanimous vote in favor of my emergency bill, we have a roadmap to move this plan forward.

🧵I've intro'd several bills trying to solve the issue of DCs er shortage: a major cause of the backlog in processing vouchers. I'm glad that today the Council moved a bill that enables ppl w/ bachelors/masters in but who are unlicensed to do more.

Washing, clearing, and braiding my girls’ hair is two hours of my Sunday evenings. Who knew that switching jobs from sweeping floors at a barbershop to sweeping floors at the braiding gallery next-door in junior high school would pay off?

We didn’t give up anything for Lent this year. Instead we were deliberate about doing something extra- cleaning up. Today, we took our promise to Rock Creek Park where I could talk to the girls about how all life is connected and how our deeds matter even beyond the impact we see

I was glad to have the opportunity to join GuyLambert today on FOX 5 DC to talk about the Caps and Wizards staying in DC and what that means for our city and our economy.

I’m praying for our neighbors in Baltimore and that first responders can find the people in the water following the early collapse.
