DC is no longer just a government town with a 9-5 schedule. We are a city of innovators, creatives & change-makers — 24hours a day, 365days a year. We established @dcmonc to ensure we’re building a nightlife industry that works for everyone. #KeepMetroOpen https://t.co/xhSuBRp6Eq
Yesterday, we rallied with @MayorBowser & the nightlife community to demand @wmata #KeepMetroOpen for an industry that contributes $7.1 billion in revenue and supports 65K jobs. We also announced the release of the first citywide Nightlife Industry report.

📣What do we want?
🚇To #KeepMetroOpen!
We are a city of innovators, creatives,
and change-makers that work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and the simplest and most obvious way to support nightlife workers from across the region is to #KeepMetroOpen!
(3/3) "The Mayor has been a vocal supporter of keeping Metro open later. The rally yesterday was a big success. Going forward, how will the District address lack of late-night transportation options?" @wmata #KeepMetroOpen @GovOperationsDC #GovOps
(2/3) "As you know, I introduced and secured passage of the Office of Nightlife and Culture. The Committee has worked diligently with @shawnjtownsend, industry workers, and advocacy groups to make the District’s economy one of the strongest in the region." @wmata #KeepMetroOpen
(1/3) "Earlier this week, a @washingtonpost article cited a study that showed the lack of late-night Metro service is hurting the District’s economy, which derives a significant amount of revenue from the nightlife industry." @wmata #KeepMetroOpen @GovOperationsDC #GovOps
@MurielBowser and @CMBrandonTodd & Director of the Mayor’s Office of Nightlife and Culture (MONC) @shawnjtownsend yesterday evening joined members of DC’s nightlife industry at a rally in support of restoring Metro’s late-night service hours. @entertain_dc #KeepMetroOpen #51

Metro is grateful for @MayorBowser’s support of later rail hours included in the GM's budget plan. If approved by Metro Board, trains would run later six nights/week, with *midnight* closing time Mon-Thu, 2AM on Fri/Sat. Make your voice heard at https://t.co/AdbFPhPLjw #wmata
Ward 8 Councilmember @trayonwhite testifying at the #KeepMetroOpen hearing about cuts to Metro Late night Service. @WashInformer #DC #Wmata @unsuckdcmetro

Show your support for our city’s nighttime industry and join us for the #KeepMetroOpen rally at 500 F Street NW! The more people, the merrier. 🚇👏😃 #mayordc #wmata #dcmetro

We’re proud to join @MayorBowser today to demand that @wmata #KeepMetroOpen late for our workers and business owners across the District and our region!

Just went to the #KeepMetroOpen rally to push @wmata to restore late night hours to the metro. Metro decided to cut late hours in 2016 in what was supposed to last only two years ending in 2019. Hours are still 5am-11:30pm M-Th, 5-1am Fridays, 7-1am Saturdays, & 8am-11pm Sundays.
“The first word of public service is PUBLIC.” This isn’t best serving the public. ANC shares her frustrations about @wmata ‘s FY2021 budget proposal. #KeepMetroOpen @wusa9

“With the existential threat of climate change, we need more bus service not less” #KeepMetroOpen
“For 50 years, the G2 has connected Howard U to Georgetown U. The 30 buses have long connected Northwest DC to Southeast DC... many more people are going to have to face transfer and delays or walk up to a mile daily...” Watch the video to hear my testimony to #KeepMetroOpen

Happening NOW: People have gathered together at the #WMATA headquarters for the #KeepMetroOpen Rally. Thank you @MayorBowser & the @dcmonc for advocating for the nighttime industry and all members of the #community! 🚆
#DowntownDC #SoMuchMore

“Given the existential threat of mass #climatechange we should not be making it more difficult to use mass transit.” Thank you to the commissioner from ANC3C for this!! #transportationequity @wmata #KeepMetroOpen #metro
Supporting @MayorBowser at the #KeepMetroOpen rally! We are here advocating for the extension of metro late night service to help the nightlife economy!
