There has been another shooting involving federal agents in Minneapolis and I am working to get more information. I will update as soon as possible. To the Trump administration and the Republicans in Congress who have stood silent: Get ICE out of our state NOW.

[Keith Edwards @keithedwards]

You have to send out the national guard, Governor.

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

Masked federal agents in Minnesota just shot and killed another person.

We must put a stop to Trump’s ICE. Now.

Stop the funding, stop the occupations, stop the killings.

[Keith Olbermann @KeithOlbermann]

Governor,

You have the Minnesota National Guard troops. Deploy them. Arrest the ICE agents. Enforce the laws and defend your people against Trump's Terrorists.

Piloting a phone-free program in our middle schools since School Year (SY) 2022-23 has demonstrated to us the clear benefits of storing students' personal devices during the school day.

For SY 2025-26, DCPS will implement a district-wide phone policy: https://t.co/9YenTKETbn 📴

There's growing pessimism on the D.C. Council that the House will ever act on the bill to fix the $1.1 billion hole it created in the city's local budget. "It's not clear it will happen," says @ChmnMendelson, who has been speaking to people on Capitol Hill about it.

[Mayor Muriel Bowser @MayorBowser]

We just launched a brand-new portal! 🚀

https://t.co/kHpBf3ZglK will make it easier for families to find and register for afterschool and summer programs.

The new platform is part of connecting young people with activities that help them learn, grow, and thrive year-round.

[Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen]

The House CR has lots of problems, but a big one is that it restricts how the District of Columbia spends its OWN money. This doesn't save a single federal tax dollar—it just treats DC residents like pawns.

It's undemocratic and un-American. I will fight it on the Senate floor.

[Matthew @MatthewMReif]

@DCAttorneyGen Get ready to sue.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Traitor?

Elon, if you don’t understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.

[Mayor Muriel Bowser @MayorBowser]

DC has been operating under a congressionally approved budget for 6 months.

Now, DC could be forced to cut $1 billion halfway through our fiscal year—impacting public safety, health and human services, and education.

It's not good for DC, and it's not good for our nation.

[Martin Austermuhle @maustermuhle]

It's shaping up to be a *very bad week* for D.C. The draft congressional spending bill to avert a federal shutdown would force D.C. to trim $945 million from its current fiscal year budget, which would spark immediate cuts to programs and staff. From @PattyMurray:

[Matthew @MatthewMReif]

What a real president acts like.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Like so many of you, I'm celebrating the incredible women in my life today. International Women's Day is a time to recognize the achievements of women and girls everywhere and recommit our efforts to advance dignity, opportunity, and equality for all. When women and girls succeed, communities, economies, and democracies succeed.
