She is the fourth-ever Black woman to serve in the Senate.

Relieved to hear the Park Road Giant (among some others) has ceased the annoyance of separating shoppers from their backpacks and bags. I’ll resume shopping there. Hope @GiantFood stores across the city follow suit!

- 1400 7th Street NW
- 300 H Street NE
- 4303 Conn Ave NW
- 1345 Park Road, NW
- 3336 Wisconsin Ave NW

Neighbors are still encouraged to reach out to my office if encountering any issues: 202-724-8028, [email protected].

Just how bad for the D.C. economy is the collapse in office building values?

D.C. brought in *$160 million* less in property taxes this year from office buildings than in 2019.

@mattyglesias The Republicans ran on higher tariffs before and look what it got them - an 86-seat loss (out of 332 in the House)! Cleveland made it back to the White House by running on lower tariffs, not the opposite.

Hard to overstate how much of an improvement speed cameras are compared to police issuing tickets.

Speed cameras are *way* more fair -- and also more reliable.

Good to see the German right coming back to its sense

But Merkel's decision to speed up Germany's exit from nuclear + their anti-nuke crusade have been much more damaging to Europe than anything that the Greeks have ever done.

And they didn't get a fraction of the criticism

The Council just voted to dissolve the Commitee on Recreation, Libraries, and Youth Affairs (RYLA), and create two new sub-committees. I stand ready to chair the Sub-Committee on Libraries and Youth Affairs, which will oversee @DYRSDC and @dcpl, among other agencies.

This was at 11th & V, NW. Luckily two cats saved with no injuries!

[DC Fire and EMS Department @dcfireems]

This was the scene that greeted 1st arriving firefighters on 11th St NW. Despite the intensity, they were able to quickly extinguish the flames with only minimal spread to an adjacent attached home. #DCsBravest
