I’m Mike and I’m running for the Ward 8 Council. I’m a Washingtonian, attorney, & former ANC Chair. We’ve seen the impact of politicians putting their pockets above the people while families are being pushed out vs. lifted up. I’m running because it’s time we Get It Right ✅

Lifting baby A’Zouri in prayer. One year old and fighting for her life due to gun violence is ridiculous. No child should endure this.

I truly appreciate this. #Ward8 deserves a fighter on the Council, the stakes are too high as our gaps widen across the board in education, wealth, and health. We’ll keep pushing forward together to uplift all of #Ward8, so we’ll be right back here in a couple of months.
