A better world is not just possible, it’s within reach. If we’re willing to organize and fight for it.

Thank you to everyone who came out for our FIRST CANVASS EVER! 🚪

Such a beautiful, spooky fall day to talk to voters about how our campaign will fight to lower the cost of living and defend DC, and to hear from people about what they want to see in Ward 1. ✊🏾🍂💀

public school LOVE 🍎📚 for students, parents, AND teachers everyday 👩‍🏫
As a proud product of public schools, I believe deeply in the value of our public education system.

Today, I am proud to announce my new policy platform, “Good Schools for All.” 📚

a HUGE thank you to every single person who made this happen: all 1,149 donors, every volunteer hosting house parties and making this campaign run, and most of all Aparna, who works harder than anyone i’ve ever met and inspires all of us to get. it. done. 💜🧡🩷
Our first financial report is in!

This campaign is about all of us. The single mother struggling to make rent. The child scared for their immigrant father. The couple scraping together money for childcare.

We’re fighting for a better DC. And we can’t do it without you. ✊🏽🔥

worker power always 🗣️
Workers are the backbone of DC. But for too long, it's been a struggle to get by and now, labor is under attack.

DC for Workers, by Workers is our new policy platform to strengthen workers' rights, support unions, raise the wage, increase benefits, and keep bad actors in check.

Nadeau blaming the Uncommitted campaign for Trump is such tired bullshit. Uncommitted voters, of which I am one, were largely loyal Democrats who wanted to influence their party and were all but expelled for their tenacity.
In a preview of the bruising fights to come, Nadeau has already begun attacking @aparnafordc.bsky.social, the former DSA organizer, over her pro-Palestinian advocacy.

Raj has rejected her comments, saying she's a loyal Democrat and they're reminiscent of Trump's attempts to divide the left.

platform drop TL;DR… solidarity forever 🌹
Through the rest of Trump's term and beyond, we need a Council that will fight for the most vulnerable members of our community and make it easier and more affordable to live here.

I’m proud to stand up for DC today and every day.

We have severely lost the plot! This coordination and cooperation with Trump to target DC residents is dangerous, unacceptable and violates our Sanctuary Values Act! I’m disgusted that we would abandon our values and our people in this way. Stand for something! Defend our values!

If you don’t know Aparna, I can’t blame you if you’re shocked at these record breaking day one numbers. But I’ve organized with Aparna for years, so I know she delivers — every time. Can’t wait for her to do the same as my Councilmember!!
🥁🥁🥁... WOW!!! I'm still in awe from yesterday.

Thank you to every one of the 💜844🩷 of you who donated yesterday to show you believe in this campaign.

We smashed our fundraising goals and we'll bring this energy as we fight to lower costs and defend DC against Trump. 💥

Aparna is both a tenant and labor organizer - need more of those people on city councils. check out the launch video
People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.

It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.

That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

As DC residents' cost of power continues to soar, Pepco's revenue has increased by almost $28 million compared to last year. This is over a 30% increase in residential revenue in just Q1 of 2025.
