@billyez2 @ANC1B Ours is basically this with minor tweaks https://t.co/pB4KN3KYhp

[Matthew Holden @_MatthewThomas]

Inspired by a resolution from ANC 5B, @ANC1B will be considering a resolution calling for an immediate overhaul and fix of the 311 system at tonight’s monthly meeting

[Josh Jacobson @joshjacobsondc]

DC's 311 app has been broken since May 1, which isn't acceptable for something residents rely on to report sidewalk issues, missed trash pickups, and broken streetlights. I got curious whether the outage actually showed up in the submission numbers. So I pulled the open data. 🧵

🌈 I’m proud to be endorsed by the @VictoryFund!

For more than 30 years, the Victory Fund has worked to elect LGBTQ+ leaders across the country, and I’m honored to have their support.

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

The election is just a few weeks away! Wondering how you can get involved and support YIMBY candidates? We've got options!

1. Come to our neighborhood canvass for Miguel this Saturday!

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

Unfortunately NIMBYs have prevented WMATA from pursuing this strategy by tying up proposed projects in court. Redevelopment of part of the Takoma parking lot has been blocked for decades.

As Councilmember, I will take on the rats.

We all know rats are a big issue in Ward 1. I hear about it every day from my constituents.

[Build more homes @john102414]

c100 is a nimby group and their questions are hilariously biased and the serious mayoral candidates politely disagreed with them. ✅

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

Reading through these C100 questionnaires and surprised to see @repoyedc not support home rule and argue we need site-by-site input to ever build more housing. This is how we lock in displacement and exclusion. 1/

I’m honored to have the endorsement of DC’s shadow senator, and my friend, @ankitjaindc!

[Governor Abigail Spanberger @GovernorVA]

The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians.

These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls.

As Governor, I will make sure voters know when and how to cast their votes this year. Because our votes are how we choose the representation we deserve.

Malcolm X Park: fountains flowing, fences down! ⛲️

[Eat DC @eat_dc]

Amazon's electric cargo bikes have arrived in DC.

[A Coffee Shop On Every Corner @cpneedscoffee]

I walked by @TheGreenZoneDC the other day and saw the streatery replaced by two (2) parked cars and suddenly became filled with an uncontrollable rage

[Elaine Luria @ElaineLuria]

Instead of apologizing, Jen Kiggans doubled down on these despicable comments that she proudly endorsed.

Virginia deserves better.

[Elaine Luria @ElaineLuria]

The racist comments proudly endorsed today by Jen Kiggans warning House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to ‘Get your cotton-picking hands off of Virginia’ are disgusting and beneath any elected official. I grew up in the South. I know what these racist dog whistles mean.

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

The third picture here is a healthcare worker who has to drive across town to get to work. Instead of allowing more homes near Sibley Memorial so she can walk, @OPinDC wants to do keep her trapped in her car for hours every week.

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

Incredible @ggwash article about Ward 3's history of racial exclusion, how zoning perpetuates it, and what we can do to fix it (build more homes).

The history here is particularly ugly. Not just keeping people off color out but forcibly evicting an entire black neighborhood.

[Rini Sampath @RiniSampath]

I’m guest bartending on Thursday at The Pug! Let me pour you a drink while we talk about what you want to see fixed in DC. All tips will go towards our people powered campaign. See you there!

[DC YIMBYs 🏗 @dcyimbys]

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed use urbanism is illegal to build in most of DC

[Barred in DC @BarredinDC]

Really comical how hard some folks tried to stop the McMillan Reservoir development.

Playground has to be near the top of DPR playgrounds, decent place for east side families to meet up with west side families (note sand pit sand is everywhere in the playground)
