At the end of today's leg meeting, Karen Brown, mother of the late Karon Hylton Brown, criticized CMs for what she called their lack of action against the Donald J. Trump pardon and DC Police Department reinstatement of T. Sutton and A. Zabavsky. More to come in Washington Informer.

It's not surprising affordable housing in one of the most exclusionary areas of DC has faced some local opposition, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't get built. Show up on March 29 to support more housing in Chevy Chase!

Here a little late but developers are giving presentations and will do our best to live tweet. Follow along 👇 One shocking thing to point out immediately is that Chevy Chase Voice, a group opposing any housing here, is happy to sacrifice homerule to get what they want.

Compounding the already tough finances D.C. is facing, Moody’s ratings has downgraded the city’s bonds. The rating agencies cites cuts to the federal workforce, and possible changes to Medicaid funding that would cost the city a significant amount.

I've been chatting with D.C. councilmembers today, and it doesn't seem like there's much appetite to repeal I-82 (which slowly phases out the tipped minimum wage) – even less so as part of the budget, as Mayor Muriel Bowser is proposing.

Good column here. And I want to add one twist, of sorts: Bowser should understand where Mendelson is coming from, since she was once there herself. Back when she was a Ward 4 councilmember she played a critical role in changing the Audi Field stadium deal, after all.

What's Initiative 82's impact on tipped workers, restaurant industry, and patrons? Why maintain a system federal and local labor depts admit is exploitative and rife with wage theft? Listen Thurs., June 5 at 5 pm WPFW89.3's "Unionism Drives Community!"

All Throne restrooms in DC, including the one in Alethia Tanner Park, are shut down as of July 5 due to an order from the Office of City Administrator. DC government is minimizing contracts because Congress failed to authorize the city to spend additional local budget funds.

.Mayor Muriel Bowser’s “gratitude” to Trump ignores what Washingtonians are seeing in their schools and neighborhoods every day: kids terrified, families afraid to leave home, masked men snatching innocent people off the street in unmarked cars. This is not safety. This is occupation.

As I feared, our Mayor’s words are now being used to justify harmful federal overreach in cities nationwide. This is bigger than DC—or partisan politics. It’s about resisting creeping authoritarianism. Yes, the balance is tough, but we must not legitimize an illegitimate agenda.

I just confirmed that this was an arrest for an open container of alcohol. Now, that still is *a lot* of police for an open container of alcohol arrest.

A local Christmas miracle: thanks to an oral amendment by Janeese Lewis George and Brianne K. Nadeau five hours into a budget hearing in July, DC is reversing $21 million in cuts to health care for low-income families. Thank you to everyone who advocated to protect the DC Alliance program.
