My dad continues to teach and guide me, and I work hard to emulate his public service. Thank you Joe, for inspiring me to lead and serve the residents of the District of Columbia. I am blessed to call you dad!
Happy Father's Day to all of our DC dads!

I thank @MayorBowser for the opportunity to serve our great city and its residents. She has chosen an excellent team to lead the District’s public safety agencies.

#Breaking Congressman Raskin Announces Loss of Son
“Tommy was pure magic. His brilliance and compassion knew no bounds. He passionately loved his family, friends, and animals, and was devoted to the cause of the global poor. We are devastated and demolished to be without him.”

Critical emergency unemployment assistance has expired for millions of families because Trump refuses to sign the bipartisan agreement Congress passed, & families have now lost a lifeline during this crisis. Trump should sign the bill Congress sent him to resume this assistance.

The bipartisan COVID relief & omnibus bill has been enrolled. The House & Senate are now sending this important legislation #ForThePeople to the White House for the President’s signature. We urge him to sign this bill into law to give immediate relief to hard-working families!

To those who say U.S. should reduce immigration, I say look at the wonderful doctors, nurses & health care workers we have come to rely on during this pandemic. So many are children of immigrants from Asia, Africa, Middle East, South Asia, Europe & South & Central America. Thanks

Lord, make us instruments of Thy peace. Where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness light; where there is sadness joy. St Francis of Assisi

Councilmember McDuffie captured here reaffirming the need for larger investments in violence prevention from a public health based approach.
CM McDuffie was joined today by CM @BrianneKNadeau for this very important discussion.

It’s simple math.
$1200 ÷ 259 days = $4.63/day
That’s not relief. That’s obscene.
We need a deal for the American people NOW.
