MOST people in our region arrested by ICE have no criminal charges or convictions. Trump’s mass deportation scheme is targeting law-abiding, hardworking people, disrupting our economy, and not making our community safer.

ICE arrests of people without criminal records surge in Virginia

Interesting: A new Bike, Walk, and Bus political action campaign is launching in D.C. with the aim of "supporting local D.C. candidates in the 2026 elections who advocate for sustainable transportation solutions."

Mónica Martínez López ran for ANC because she loves her community - its shared spaces, neighbors, and everyday moments of connection. She's a bridge-builder, a fierce advocate, and a friend I’m proud to support. Congress has no right to erase her. #HandsOffDC www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
D.C. elected these noncitizens to office. Congress could oust them.
Congress is considering repealing a law that allows noncitizens to vote in local elections in D.C. — which could in turn disqualify noncitizens from office.

If you're a D.C. Library user, be aware: The D.C. Public Library system says it is likely going to have to reduce opening hours at neighborhood branches, from the current 61 hours a week to 40 hours. Branches would also go from being open seven days a week to five days.

#DYK? Metro is good for your health. People who ride transit walk as much as 30 minutes more a day, increasing heart health, building muscle, and reducing risk of heart disease. Take Metro on this #NationalExerciseDay!

This piece has been on my mind in this moment where we’ve lost autonomy over how we spend our own revenue.

For those who don’t understand the challenge of living in DC. There’s no other municipality in the country for which Congress can invalidate a balanced full year budget passed by the people’s elected representatives, and halfway into the fiscal year at that. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/w...
G.O.P. Spending Bill Would Force $1 Billion Cut to D.C. Budget
Republicans omitted a standard provision approving the District’s budget in a stopgap funding measure needed to avert a shutdown before the end of the week. The result would be a 16 percent cut.
