Investing in young people, especially through STEM education is one of the most effective ways to strengthen our communities.
Time spent investing in kids today measurably improves their future prospects, leading to stronger workforce outcomes and safer communities tomorrow.

This Black Friday weekend we want to make sure our money is going to companies that side with DC communities, not Trump’s agenda.
Here are two ways you can help make that happen tomorrow (1/3)

I had the privilege of visiting Addie’s Love in Ward 7, a home rooted in kindness, faith, and true community. Ms. Addie built a place where everyone is welcomed, valued, and cared for.
Honored to stand with those carrying her legacy forward.

When Congress targets D.C.’s laws, they target our people. I stood alongside neighbors and advocates to demand what every community deserves, the right to self-govern, the right to safety, and the right to be heard.
The fight for D.C. statehood and real justice continues.

Too many of our neighbors are blocked from housing, jobs, and stability because of old records.
Thank you to everyone who showed up to serve and support.

It was an honor to stand with Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi a historic leader whose decades of service strengthened our Congress and our country.
Her commitment to public service, equity, and democratic values has guided generations of lawmakers.
Wishing her the very best!
