Ranked choice voting might sound confusing at first, but it’s actually simple. You just rank candidates in the order you prefer. Easy, fair, and it makes your vote go further. #GoodweatherForMayor #DCLivesHere #DCDems #RCV

Soaring bills show our current system isn’t working. Our proposal would lower costs by generating power here at home, scaling proven technology like solar and geothermal, and holding Pepco accountable for every dollar charged. It is time to rein them in and demand real

We just wrapped up the Sustainable Transportation Candidate Forum and we’re grateful for the thoughtful, solutions focused conversation. Gary was proud to share his vision for safer streets, stronger public transit, and a transportation system that truly connects every ward.

Free buses for DC residents is phase 1. Free rail is phase 2. Less congestion, more access to opportunity, more customers at local businesses. As DC's next mayor, I will unlock this city for everyone. 🚌🚇 #farefreedc #goodweatherformayor
For his part, mayoral candidate @goodweather4dc says he would push for fare-free buses. "It will be a net-positive revenue generator to our city," he says.

I agree. And I want to see a rat-free DC. 🚫 🐀
Ward 1 knows what’s up. Make the residential composting pilot a permanent program. Increase the number of smart bins. Replace our open-air rat buffets, I mean litter bins. Install more litter and recycling bins. It’s not rocket science; it’s good municipal management.

These are our kids. Our neighbors. Our city. DC stands with its families. #GoodweatherForMayor #dcliveshere
Hundreds of students from across Washington, D.C., walked out of school on Friday to protest actions taken during the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Students held signs that read, “Keep Families Together” and “ICE Out Now!” https://t.co/imwQYMzR2L

Insightful conversation with neighbors about the proposed redevelopment of the Chevy Chase Library today. Hearing directly from community members about what they want, need, and deserve is what guides this campaign. We are committed to meeting residents in every ward and making

This will be a reflection of how @kenyanmcduffie will govern if elected. You will rarely if ever have an opportunity to engage with him.
@kenyanmcduffie certainly declined the Coalition for DC Public Schools & Communities on March 4. The only one solely focused on education. @SamPKCollins

@john102414 @mattyglesias genuinely curious why many journalist don’t mention @goodweather4dc, Pro-housing! Is it because we have a past view on JGL & Duffie? I haven’t seen many Washingtonians like either of the 2 most talked about candidates yet there’s 1 not talked about who is better
