Shout out to the driver of the D6. @wmata - Give this man a raise for figuring out how to get us all home amidst protest street closures and gridlocked traffic. Bus 7200. 👐

Fellow white women: I've spent the last decade organizing you and I know firsthand the impact you can have when you use your economic and political power for good. This MUST be the election when a majority of us help elect the first woman, a Black woman, President. That means...

[Brandon M. Scott @MayorBMScott]

Now’s the time for us to rally around @KamalaHarris and defeat Donald Trump.

Black women have saved this country time and time again.

For that reason and a hundred others, there is no other — or better — option than the Vice President to unite our party and win in November.

Thanks to a creative, holistic approach, the crime rate in Newark has fallen to a rate we haven’t seen in 6 decades.

We have defied expectations by putting innovative, community-based solutions at the forefront of our agenda.

Our work has only just begun.

I was lucky enough to represent @leagueofcities at the @NOVPNetwork convening at the White House today. Shout out to @sajackson527 and the many local leaders in the room doing the hard work across the country to address violence.

Offensive foul?! Off the ball!! NEVER IN MY LIFE!!

[The ReidOut @thereidout]

Republicans have blamed the Baltimore bridge disaster on DEI programs and more outlandish bogeymen. Mayor Brandon Scott (D)--after being slandered as a "DEI mayor"--fights back on #TheReidOut.

[ACLU of the District of Columbia @ACLU_DC]

Today, we’re reminding the Council that District residents deserve to be safe from abuse of power, and that some provisions in the Secure DC Act would put our safety and our rights at risk. Let’s hope they hear us.

[Anti-Racist South |🇵🇸 #FreePalestine @antiracistsouth]

I am filled with rage. Cop City funder @axon_enterprise claims to have a “moonshot” vision of “cutting police shootings by 50% in 10 years”— but it’s nothing more than a marketing pitch for their supposedly “less than lethal” weapons. Murderers.
