Every year, our Right Direction Awards celebrate exceptional young people in DC. 🏅

Do you know a young person in DC (ages 14-24) who has overcome a major challenge or is making a positive impact in our community?

Please nominate them for an award at oag.dc.gov/rda by Wednesday, October 22!

As the Nation’s Capital, DC has always partnered with the federal government to drive down crime.

But sending masked agents to take people off our streets, flooding our neighborhoods with armed soldiers, and attempting a federal takeover of MPD — these are not lasting solutions for making DC safer.

📌 DC laws should be written by people who know how DC works.

DC is made up of vibrant communities and hard-working people who are the backbone of our culture and economy.

We are small business owners, veterans, teachers, nurses, police officers, and civil servants.

We are Americans who deserve the same freedom to govern ourselves that other Americans enjoy.
