JLG’s campaign policy shop is robust. Feedback is sought out, analyzed, & distilled into the platform. The quality I value most in a leader is a willingness to leave no stone unturned, to seek out differing & dissenting views. JLG simply doesn’t see disagreement as a threat.

Meanwhile in the Janeese listening sessions, it was fully open, freewheeling sessions. No pre-screening, no "I was so excited to ready your platform because..."...just honest conversations about issues in SIX different events. Janeese as mayor= all welcome, all heard!

Comparing mayoral listening sessions will tell you everything you need to know about how they will govern: ✅ @Janeese4DC held SIX education listening sessions, anyone could speak, full chat & debate. ❌ @kenyanmcduffie held ONE w/ pre-selected speakers only & a disabled chat.

No...it shows a lack of understanding of what DC youth face right now- being told they basically can't do anything but go to school and go home. Banning them from their own football games, imposing curfews, MPD helping ICE terrorizing communities. Youth deserve freedom and joy. @CMZParker5 @CMLewisGeorgeW4 @CMFrumin @chenderson @CMBrookePinto @CMCharlesAllen @CMRobertWhiteDC @AnitaBondsDC @kenyanmcduffie @ChmnMendelson @trayonwhite @CMWendellFelder @BrianneKNadeau @BlackSwanAcad @WeAreDCAction

This situation is a pretty good example of the challenges Bowser can face in the council. But there's people who tell me it shows the shortcomings in some of her outreach to councilmembers. The concerns around extending the curfew were pretty well known, and manageable.

Unfortunately for the 2nd straight year the Mayor has excluded @DCSBOE representatives-the ones you elect to represent you on key edu issues & advocate for communities and schools- from the annual Back to School guide. You can find ALL education leaders on our website here: weareempowered.org/contact-d…

MY VIEW: Education advocates and officials, including @DCSBOE Rep. @BenWilliamsDC, are filling up council chambers where the Committee of the Whole will discuss the markup of the FY26 education budget. @WashInformer

We’re here to let @ChmnMendelson and every single council member know that they have failed to fund one of the single most effective programs to improve attendance, academic outcomes and address poverty at the same time. We won’t stop until they #FundCommunitySchools @SamPKCollins @maustermuhle @tomsherwood @RebeccaTurcoTV @wusa9
The Committee of Whole is holding its budget markup for the agencies under its purview. Below is a summary of some of the changes the committee is proposing. The Committee report, linked below, analyzes requests, states concerns, makes revisions and offers recommendations.

Let this be a clear warning sign to the @councilofdc: this is exactly the wrong time to be cutting the Community Schools program- one of the most effective programs we have to ensure students are in school, engaged and have what they need to focus on learning. @ChmnMendelson @BrianneKNadeau @CMBrookePinto @CMFrumin @Janeese4DC @ZacharyforWard5 @charlesallen @CMWendellFelder @RobertWhite_DC @chenderson @AnitaBondsDC @CM_McDuffie
Powerful hometown accountability reporting: "a Washington Post investigation found that the D.C. Council and Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) have failed to follow through on key initiatives that promised to keep students in class and out of trouble." washingtonpost.com/investiga…

Grateful to meet with members of @AFSCME District Council 20 representing support staff, drivers, and techs across @dcpublicschools and @OSSEDC. We need the executive to come to the table to give these workers a contract that honors their essential work.

We’re out here demanding that Congress understand that real DC families, youth, educators, transit workers, public safety will all be deeply affected if the House refuses to act this week and restore the $1B of OUR money to the DC budget. Schedule a vote now! @SpeakerJohnson
