3-1-WTF? The app for service requests has been malfunctioning for more than a month, and residents want answers. We dug into what's going on and when residents can expect improvements. 51st.news/311-app-dc-ouc/

DC's 311 app for residents to request city services is broken

Gayle King stood up from her chair on LIVE TV this morning to give this man, the focus of our story, an ovation. He deserved every bit her applause. Robert Carter is a phenomenal, self-made man with a hell of a human story.
