The proposed budget is unfairly balanced on the backs of working families, while no sacrifice is being asked of wealthy residents who can give more. My proposal is simple: restore childcare, paid family leave, and healthcare with a modest surcharge on passive wealth.

A big lobby day at the Wilson Building today by @wearedcaction.bsky.social arguing for the reversal of planned cuts to childcare/healthcare programs. @brianneknadeau.bsky.social is speaking in support of new 2% surcharge on passive income to do so.

DC, everyone should have heat on days like today! ❄️ If you're a renter and your heat is out, submit a maintenance request and call our free Consumer Protection hotline at 202-442-9828. We can also help if any of your utilities are disconnected, and the utilities are the landlord’s responsibility.

How will DC's bottle bill system protect against fraud? Reverse vending machines can read market-specific codes & reject those not sold in DC. We can also educate residents to place out-of-state containers in recycling bins and limit how many containers can be returned at one time.

Bottle bill facts. How can businesses be sure bottles and cans that are redeemed were purchased in D.C. and eligible for a refund?
 
The industry is responsible for creating codes, labels, or other guard rails to ensure that only containers sold in the District are given refunds. The industry has many tools at its disposal and the system has worked well in states and provinces around the world.
