Reagan’s staff was so worried he was out of it, they tested him secretly, to see if they needed to invoke the 25th amendment. But Reagan told a few jokes and convinced them he was all right…

Last month Maryland Gov. Wes Moore issued pardons for low-level marijuana convictions for an estimated 100,000 people in what is being called “one of the nation’s most sweeping acts of clemency” involving cannabis. https://t.co/xHOudHBPdj

60 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed into law, a monumental step towards equality.

Today, we honor the legacy of those who have fought for justice in this nation and continue to push for a fair and just society for all.

This is a great and important take on D.C.'s second-class status. And it's not just limited to crime: think of ignored "national" parkland in city limits, limits on property and income taxation that will always hamstring the city's finances, etc.

In capitalist America you learn a new thing every new day. If you obtain a person’s cell number for the purpose of common good that’s considered disrespectful.

Invited to Mayor's Friday groundbreaking at Kenilworth 166. Can't be there, I'm hosting a meeting on opioids. But...48 "affordable" units @50% AMI? Most of Ward7 or 8 can't even afford THAT! Family incomes have only risen 10% (W7) and 12% (W8) in last 20 YEARS! Ward 6 & 2- 325%!

The Washington Post article on Opioids: https://t.co/RZWgt1AFIT highlights the Sackler family's culpability in causing death to hundreds of thousands of families each year. In DC opioid deaths are DOUBLE the # of homicides. I am working with stakeholders and ANC's on solutions.
