@fairvote.bsky.social. Formerly @sierraclub.org. Connect with my office at https://senatorjaindc.com/
The President put out this post maybe a day before he signs a bill attempting to steal $600 million in local tax dollars from DC that we could use to fund DC Water to prevent the next Potomac spill. Spare me the BS that Republicans are better at providing people clean water

In light of the upcoming vote preventing DC from controlling its own finances, I joined forces with Free DC to seek a meeting with the office of Senator Lisa Murkowski to convince her to vote NO.

The Senate is voting on vetoing DC’s attempts to decouple our local taxes from Trump’s Big “Beautiful” Bill THIS WEEK. We need your help to protect DC’s tax system and stop tax increases for working families in DC. Use this link to help join the fight: freedcproject.org/news/dcs-mon...?

Washington, DC was built on the backs of centuries of African Americans. Our fight for DC statehood continues the push for equality and representation for all - ensuring that we lift every voice in 'Dream City." The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream lives on in all of us.

I was on the Hill most of the past two days advocating against Republican efforts to cause tax chaos in DC & raise taxes on working families. I’ll be back tomorrow. Our message is filtering in to Congress. We just need a few common-sense Republicans to vote No to tax chaos in DC

National Republicans are trying to repeal DC’s child tax credit and expanded earned income tax credit. Learn more about the repeal bill and join the fight to defeat it here: bit.ly/3Z5npUO

Today we celebrate how far we have come thanks to the work of Dr. King, and recognize how far we still have to go. My office marched in the MLK Day Parade this morning to honor Dr. King's legacy, and we will continue fighting to make Chocolate City the 51st state in the nation

I joined protesters calling for ICE to get out of DC and justice for Renee Nicole Good. We need to stop MPD cooperation with federal immigration authorities before they kill someone in DC too

As I told the @washingtonpost.com, the Trump Administration's attempted takeover of DC isn't being done *for* us, it's being done *to* us. And if we let it succeed, they will take this playbook and run it in blue cities around the country. We have to stop it here

My #1 piece of advice to DC voters is to rank all five candidates to give yourself the most voice

Thank you to DC Women in Politics and panelists Director Evans of the DC Board of Elections and David Meadows for kicking off today the education campaign on how RCV will work in DC!

Today, the House Oversight Committee met its solemn responsibility to conduct oversight of the Trump Administration's illegal actions.... just kidding, they spent time debating what doctrine DC's local courts should employ when interpreting DC's local administrative regulations

Thursday was my 33rd birthday! Can you help me celebrate by donating $33 to my Statehood Fund that I use to support my office's activities? You can donate here: www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

Celebrating with re-elected Arlington County Board Chair @takiskarantonis.bsky.social! What great results in Virginia and across the country. This country is sick and tired of MAGA extremism—tonight is the first step in fighting back for our rights in DC and across the country

Out at the polls today supporting @arlingtondems.bsky.social. What happens to one of us in the DMV affects all of us, so we have to stick together. Let’s hope for a blue wave and a state government that is more willing to work with DC to advance our shared interests!
November 4, 2025 at 5:27 PM
Out knocking on doors for the Democratic ticket in Virginia today. What happens to one part of the DMV impacts all of us, so we all have to stick together. I’m hopeful we’ll see Virginia turn blue on Tuesday!

There are numerous things the Mayor and MPD could do to make it harder for ICE to racially profile and harass Latinos. Here are two: Immediately rescind MPD Executive Order 25-005 and stop doing joint patrols with federal immigration agents

Happy Diwali to all those celebrating! 🪔

Diwali celebrates the victory of light over dark and good over evil. This Diwali season, I am reminded to have faith that good will prevail in the end, as it always does.

We have been told that the National Guard deployment in DC will cost the federal government $201 MILLION through the end of this calendar year. If the Guard is really staying through the America 250 celebration, the total cost to the taxpayers could easily top half a billion

DC says no to kings and dictators and yes to statehood and Home Rule!

Ohio Republicans are just getting started in their gerrymandering. But already some Dems are considering caving. We need Democrats to stand up and fight in Ohio. If you live in that state, tell your reps you want them to vote NO on all gerrymandered maps www.rooster.info/p/you-play-t...
