BIG NEWS: The Council just passed the #SafeRoutesToSchool Act, which will make the roads around our schools the safest in our city.

The bill requires sweeping traffic safety infrastructure at all public schools, expands school zones, and strengthens DC's crossing guard program.

Twitter fam, thank you for helping me to find the family of the 9 year old girl from NJ who had the police called on her by her neighbor for collecting lantern flies. I connected with them & invited them to @yale for a Black girl led Science Tour! Yesterday—HISTORY was MADE (1/)

This week we said goodbye to Virginia McLaurin at age 113. She was a beloved Ward 4 community member, tireless DC schools volunteer, fearless tenant leader, and a devoted foster grandparent.

Ms. Virginia will forever be remembered for her passion for service and infectious joy.

@actfortransit Is this a driver loophole? "I am not really parked in a MARKED crosswalk because the paint is gone, not my fault the pedestrian infrastructure is so bad that the DOT doesn't repaint faded crosswalks"

Today is a Sports Equinox for those who celebrate.

For the 27th time ever, the NFL, MLB, NHL and NBA are all playing on the same day.

There are also two MLS postseason matches tonight.

Today is a good day.

Thinking about the people of Stow, MA during this difficult time. @wbznewsradio

A great way to celebrate 15 yr anniversary @Filomena_DC. We met on the @mbta subway and she’s been traveling all over the world riding 🚌🚇 so perfect way to get home on @wmata @Metrobusinfo tonight! I’m a lucky guy and thankful for such a great life partner.

Queens in August: “Baseball! Tennis!”

What a shame! Newell Street being open to pedestrians and kids and closed to cars has encouraged me to patronize Denizens and other businesses on E/W because I can breathe for one wonderful block while walking/ scooting/ biking with my kids.

[Paul Meyer @pmeyer19]

This is the announcement where @MCDOTNow says Newell Street, where kids play, is being returned to drivers. 1 fucking block.

My buddy is trying to lose weight right now but a bomb-ass ice cream shop has moved into the first floor of the 5-over-1 he lives in. Mixed-use development advocates have no answer for this.

[Dr. Mae Jemison @maejemison]

@NichelleIsUhura is forever for me the embodiment of grace, daring, intelligence, fun, inspiration, beauty, talent & the future.
Today I am heart-sad at her passing.
I consider our dearest friendship a great treasure & privilege in my life.

@ItsAllAboutDe Sounds like a presidential debate 😆

It’s my birthday. I am old. Help me to get to 3000 followers so later on I can attempt to exploit your emotions to get to 4000.

[Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper]

Today in @HSGAC, we heard from 3 exceptionally qualified judges for the Superior Court of DC.

But the fact that DC residents have to wait for Senators they didn’t elect to approve their local judges—that’s an injustice in itself. Americans deserve better.

I hope everybody is enjoying my favorite day of the year , Bobby Bonilla Day

[DC Deputy Mayor for Education @DMEforDC]

Last night, DME celebrated the winners of our #HealthyHeroesDC Youth Art Contest!

These inspiring artists showed us why getting vaccinated is so important to protecting the health of our communities. We look forward to sharing the winning artwork throughout the summer!
