DoorDash claims to support DC’s autonomy… while actively undermining it. If you’ve already deleted your account and the app from your phone, then I hope you’ll join Free DC on August 7 and call on DoorDash to withdraw support from H.R. 9720. Oppose federal attacks on the people of DC.

Full circle moment for me! In 2010 I served as an education instructor at the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center and the read-aloud sessions were my students’ favorite part of the day. The tradition continues all these years later...

A House committee approved a bill that would impede DC's ability to close tax loopholes and deliver a more affordable DC.  Let the people of DC govern DC. We have balanced our budget on time for each of the last 30 years. The last time the federal government could say that was 2001.

I stand in solidarity with the nurses of MedStar Washington Hospital Center and urge MedStar leadership to immediately reverse its decision to close 11 postpartum beds. DC's mothers, babies, and families deserve greater investment, not fewer resources. My full statement:

Thank you @dcdemocrats.bsky.social and Monumental for hosting our 2026 Unity Breakfast. We have instructions for times like this, and they require us to come together. This moment demands that all of us be at the table to fight for the city we love.

It was great spending time with the Eastern Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters. I look forward to continuing our partnership to build a stronger, more affordable DC one project, one neighborhood, and one good-paying union job at a time.

Everything I am and everything I’ve been able to achieve has been because of my mom, Diane. She taught me to work hard, serve my community, listen, and to lift others up. Campaigning isn’t easy but she’s been there every step of the way and been a wonderful grandma to PJ. Happy birthday, Mom!

I’ll be walking in the Fourth of July parades in Capitol Hill and Palisades this Saturday and it would be great to see you! Capitol Hill: www.mobilize.us/janeesefordc... Palisades: www.mobilize.us/janeesefordc...

The Supreme Court decision is a devastating setback for our immigrant neighbors who have built their lives, careers, and communities here in Washington, DC, home to over 3,000 TPS holders.

DC has always been a city full of talent. Wale’s journey from DC kid to Grammy Award-winning artist is a reminder of what’s possible when talent and opportunity come together.

We celebrated Pride with Capital Stonewall Democrats to recognize our LGBTQ+ neighbors who help make this city the best in the world. At a moment when our politics can be divisive, we come together with a great sense of pride in being one DC. Happy Pride 💜🌈

Happy Juneteenth, DC. Fannie Lou Hamer said it plainly, “Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.” Today is Juneteenth, a celebration marking the day the news of freedom finally reached enslaved people in Texas.

It’s time to work together, to roll up our sleeves and achieve a better DC.  Whether you voted for me or not, I am fighting for you.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for DC Mayor.

District residents deserve transparency when utility bills go up.   Today, I'm proud to introduce the Public Trust in Utility Regulation Act.⚡   Residents deserve confidence that rate increases are justified, costs are transparent, and every decision is made in the public interest.

Pastor Anika Wilson-Brown embodies that legacy of Union Temple. Over the years, she has been like a big sister to me.  She’s encouraged me to lead with purpose and stay focused on how we serve others while living into our calling.
