The D.C. Board of Elections tossed out $16,000 in fines that had been levied against Janeese Lewis George’s mayoral campaign, rejecting claims from campaign finance regulators that she had impermissibly coordinated with local unions ahead of the June primary.

Our Latino community helps make DC the vibrant and beautiful city we all love. This Hispanic Heritage Month, I want to highlight one of our many Latino-owned small businesses, El Tamarindo in Adams Morgan.

Today, the DC Council voted to make it easier for residents to access utility affordability programs. We should not make people prove their hardship over and over again before they can get help.

Today, the DC Council voted to make it easier for residents to access utility affordability programs. People who are eligible for help with their bills shouldn't have to spend hours navigating confusing forms, they should get it automatically. Let’s give people their time back.

In ward after ward, we heard the same thing: Childcare is much too expensive in DC, and it's hurting families. Universal affordable childcare is one of my top priorities, and I'd love to hear your ideas for how we can achieve it together.

Thank you to our 350 volunteers who made the listening tour possible, our vendors who provided food, and our houses of worship that hosted us.

DC’s greatest asset is our people, and so I’m honored that roughly 4,000 Washingtonians attended our Building the People’s Government listening tour over the past month.

We can’t wait to start addressing rising utility costs. My Public Trust in Utility Regulation Act of 2026 is one immediate step toward lowering costs for DC consumers.

Affordable, quality childcare is not only possible but necessary. Thx CentroNia for hosting us for a conversation about DC’s childcare supply. To achieve universal access to childcare, government & communities need to work together to expand facilities, invest in workers & give parents more choice.

DC residents are powerful when we fight together!

Our right to govern ourselves is not up for negotiation. DC’s fight for self-governance is a national fight for democracy. www.washingtonsun.com/metro/doorda...

The Kennedy Center is a focal point for the arts in DC, and its workers and supporters need our help to defend it.

Commanders WIN! Let’s go! 🔥 Incredible job, @wshcommanders.bsky.social. Way to make DC proud.

Good jobs are the foundation of a strong economy. Today, I met with our union leaders to talk about how we govern together to ensure DC residents have access to high-quality jobs with good wages and good benefits. When we fight, we win!
