I see a woman who’s gracious to a departing colleague on his last day as he resigns from office, looks to find common ground, and shows value in public service. Interesting choice to turn that around and use it as fodder for a campaign ad. That choice says more than she did.
This morning, @charlesallen stood with firefighters who put their lives on the line every day for DC residents, workers, and visitors. They deserve fair pay for that sacrifice and the ability to afford to live in the city they serve. This budget must meet that obligation.
Council just passed my bill to ban the predatory “common area utility fees” driving up costs for DC renters - for things they don’t even use! They aren’t disclosed upfront & add thousands of $$ to housing. It’s time to let the rent be the rent! Join me at https://t.co/vYbV35xUyd
"I understand and am supportive that at times we need to go into closed session. I don’t see why we can’t let people know we’re going into closed session. I don’t think that’s too much to ask for transparency," said @charlesallen to Mendelson.
Caught opening night of Hairspray with the Stuart Hobson Drama Players last night! You can catch another performance this evening and the finale tomorrow at 2pm.

This morning, CM @charlesallen swore in ANC 6E06’s new commissioner, Christina Laridaen!
When Christina learned about the vacancy, she decided to step up and serve her neighbors.

New: @Janeese4DC just released an internal poll showing her up by 14 in the mayoral race: her lead stays at 12 even when they run a RCV simulation.
This is quite the change from the public poll of the race, but I will say I’ve heard rumors of private polls with similar results.
Ballot drop boxes are now open! Got questions? We made a handy guide for all your questions about casting your vote: https://t.co/jqaWKklefa Drop boxes are secure & ballots are collected every single day by the Board of Elections. It’s the #1 way that Ward 6 likes to vote!
Earlier today, I alerted DGS leadership & the DCPS Chancellor about the urgent need to repair the HVAC at Maury ES and honor its commitment from our site visit last July to the long-term fix needed to upgrade a system that seems to break down every single year.
