141,000 DC residents rely on SNAP and 12,500 rely on WIC to put food on the table each month. We are moving forward to ensure we take care of DC residents by authorizing the use of local funds for November payments. We were hopeful it wouldn't come this. We need the federal

The reality is the #CharlieKirk tragedy isn’t about left wing or right wing; conservative, moderate or liberal; democrat or republican….its about real gun reform that protects lives and keeps communities safe!

Well Old Man, the journey ends here. You gave me pride in being a Holcomb & courage to stand tall. As you taught me…manhood is wins & owning your faults. The void hurts, but there is hope, 1 Thes 4:13 “we don’t grieve as them who have no hope”. Take your rest from labor. 🕊️

Thanks @TheRevAl for having me on to discuss Trump’s latest attacks on Home Rule. Over the last week, we’ve seen horrifying footage of conduct by federal law enforcement officers in DC. Trump’s actions are creating more violence and doing nothing to address real crime.

No one cares more about reducing crime in DC than me. And I'm willing to humble myself and accept help to keep people safe. What is happening in DC is not that. It's the furtherance of an agenda set on using brute force to scare people and harm the most vulnerable.

The real story of DC is coming out: We have beautiful neighborhoods across all eight wards, an incredible team of local government workers, and a city that is running with the highest level of services for our residents.

Please know @AmericanAir your generic email response to my letter is unsatisfactory and unacceptable. Do better, show you really care about your customers.

Worst experiences flying @AmericanAir Two full-day delays. I missed a major speaking engagement after the gate was closed in my face + sat on the tarmac for hrs. This Chicago trip? All-day delay because a flight attendant didn’t show +another hr stuck on the tarmac after landing.

Year 37. If the last 365 days taught me anything, it’s this: it will all work out. Not on my timeline, but always on time. Peace found me. Purpose held me. God stayed faithful. “…and the God of peace will be with you.” – Philippians 4:9 #Year37 #ItWillAllWorkOut

I’m on my way to the Capitol right now w/other councilmembers to ask House GOP to fix their mistake in the CR that would cut $1b from DC’s budget – DC's own money! It would cut police, fire, teachers & more. That does not make DC safer, cleaner, or better!

Traffic in Ward 7 is getting worse by the day…@DDOTDC needs to deploy staff to address vehicles blatantly ignoring no parking restrictions during rush hour causing an unnecessary traffic congestion from Minnesota & Grant to Minnesota & Benning. @CMWendellFelder @CMCharlesAllen

We can’t regain control of Congress and state houses across the country remaining in silos. Excluding marginalized groups that have real connections to voters we’ve lost isn’t the approach!
Confirming me or my firm were NOT invited to this retreat, even though we were the most successful democratic firm of 2024. My sources tell me there were no black or latino consultants in attendance. And no one WITHOUT a college degree. #WhyWeLose

Four years ago, in the middle of a pandemic, we needed a leader with the character to put politics aside and do what was right. That’s what @JoeBiden did.  At a time when our economy was reeling, he drove what would become the world’s strongest recovery – with 17 million new

ICYMI: Ward 7 @DCSBOE candidate Toni Criner recently garnered the support of @WendellforWard7, @tmholcomb, and even her opponent Charles Boston. Criner is one of three, now two people, running to unseat @Eboni_RoseDC. My @WashInformer story explains.

With less than two weeks before Election Day, some Ward 7 politicos are coalescing around Toni Criner’s campaign for the Ward 7 State Board of Education (SBOE) seat. During the earlier part of...
