Wholly Booking

WB looks at pieces of the American nightmare to tell the story of how we got here and better stories of communities coming together to fix it.

[CM Janeese Lewis George @CMLewisGeorgeW4]

Today we finalized the DC budget! 🙌🏾

We secured funds to bring a library to #KennedyStreet, keep Shepherd Park Library open, and invest in #Ward4 communities.

We also reversed harmful cuts to traffic safety, violence prevention, victim services, legal aid and rental assistance.

Between NYC in wildfire smoke and this in PR, it bears repeating how unprepared we are for the climate crisis.

We must adapt our food systems, energy grids, infrastructure, healthcare, etc ASAP to prepare for what’s to come and catch up to what is already here. #GreenNewDeal 🌱

The amendment passed unanimously! If DC has excess revenue, it will go towards increasing SNAP benefits for DC families and restoring the aid that was promised to DC's Excluded Workers.

Thanks to my colleagues for their support and to our communities for their powerful advocacy.

You can read the full letter, and use it to inform your own feedback directly to WMATA, on my website here: https://t.co/J3oaJXf5he

Excited to be in East Baltimore to announce renovations coming to the Chick Webb Memorial Recreation Center.

“Nearly 74% of pedestrian fatalities occur at non-intersection locations. The use of pedestrian beacons have been shown to reduce crashes by 55%.” @NHTSAgov 🚸 @nathanielcline @MercuryVirginia

I stopped by Hanover County to visit the banned book reading rally outside the Hanover County Board of Supervisors meeting. Great people out in this small county north of Richmond, Virginia.

Tried to warn everyone in 2020.

Nobody wanted to hear it.

Liberals just wanted to believe the obvious lies.

Now here we are. https://t.co/Ao7o3ere2a

[David Sirota @davidsirota]

Buried in the fine print at the bottom of a new report out today, the federal government admits that climate change has become a major threat to the supply chain that supports the entire economy.

There is no billionaire donor or lobbyist to buy congressional support for food stamps.

There are lots of billionaire donors and an entire lobbyist army to buy congressional support for billionaire tax cuts.

There - now you understand the dynamics of the debt ceiling debate.

[David Sirota @davidsirota]

INVESTIGATION: Leonard Leo's dark money network bankrolled the group spearheading the GOP's debt-ceiling demand to add work requirements to programs like Medicaid.

Same group has loosened child labor laws in legislatures.

Their goal: Exploitable labor. https://t.co/ydG3ggh4Q2

We’ve come a long way, baby: What it’s taken for Cleveland Park to open its doors to more homes, more transit, more businesses, and more people—and what’s next: https://t.co/1TwinqOuPa

There is no end to greed in our city.

A luxury hotel in a development that got $300 million in tax giveaways would rather shut down a beloved restaurant than let its workers unionize.

We stand with all the workers. Lift up @UHLocal25's statement and their call for a boycott👇🏾.

Democrats rarely try to communicate any economic message anymore. But here’s one Democrat who is 👇

[be water @BreRVA]

Great choice, @WorkingFamilies!

[Scott Goldstein @ScottGoldstein]

Why is this Mayor just so consistently…Republican? She wants to save a 6 lane road from the alternative proposal of funding FREE BUSES for all DC residents. Just take the D off your name already.

For Earth 🌍 Month, we asked students to show through art 🎨 how public transportation creates a greener planet. We selected 15 art pieces to feature on Metrobuses 🚌 in DC, MD, and VA. You can soon track the buses here: https://t.co/2mOd1QK9jH #EarthMonth #wmata #ArtinTransit
