The number of times and ways that employers cheat workers of their deserved wages is outrageous. Thank you @DCAttorneyGen for pursuing this and other wage cases to keep our workers whole.
WORKER WIN: Over 300 hotel housekeepers in DC will receive $215,000 after their companies failed to pay proper overtime pay. The companies will also pay penalties and correct their practices. Workers who put in long hours week after week will get the overtime wages they earned.

It's a beautiful thing. And now it's time to get beverage bottles and cans out of the river.
Great article last week showing efforts like DC’s bag bill have worked to reduce trash. In DC, it led to 72% fewer bags showing up as trash in the Anacostia River & 60-80% reduction in single use bags at stores. $ generated goes back into river cleanup.

I love Ward 1 Pool Day! It was great catching up with neighbors and handing out ice pops on a very hot day. Data point: blue is a very popular flavor! If you entered the raffle for Nats tickets you’ll hear from us soon!

This budget season, I'm committed to allocating funds where they belong: not to billionaires, but to the people most in need across the District.

Additional concerns include the Pay Equity Fund and educator wellness grants. Continued underfunding of these critical programs would have serious consequences. I will work to make sure we are doing everything possible to advance equity & expand opportunities for families.

LAYC supports low-income youth at four schools, including Cardozo in Ward 1, through wraparound services like truancy prevention, college & career readiness, case management & individualized interventions. I am working with the Chairman & my colleagues to find this funding.

But there is still critical work to be done. We need at least $2.48 million to restore the Community Schools program, and $4.5 million to expand it. Community Schools provide vital support services through trusted community partners like the Latin American Youth Center.

We're taking steps to uphold our commitment to educators on H-1B visas. And we're investing in Bancroft Annex project, in experimental learning opportunities, and in support for expectant and parenting students.

We're prioritizing equity, student wellbeing, and the educators that lift our students up in the Committee of the Whole budget report. But there are still detrimental gaps in the Mayor’s proposed budget that we need to fix.

Time for some trash talk! Keeping our city clean & livable was a huge priority for me as we put together our Cmte on Public Works & Operation budget recommendations. We're achieving that goal by adding 250 litter & recycling cans, expanding public restrooms & composting & more.
