.@atulocal689.bsky.social members move our region as bus and train operators, mechanics, station managers, and more.

Their labor makes it possible for people to go to work, get back home after a long day, or travel across the region for fun.

We are beyond proud to endorse Aparna Raj for Ward 1!

Aparna has stood with us on picket lines and at rallies, and knows personally what it means to build power for working people as a Union member herself.

We know that she will have our backs on Council and we are excited to have hers now.
Workers built DC and they make this city run.

Today, we’re proud to announce that 4 major unions representing workers in food service and hospitality, public transit, and DC government have endorsed our campaign: @unitehere.org Locals 23 and 25, @atulocal689.bsky.social, and AFGE Local 2725 ✊🏽🥳

cmon bowser, u can be legendary like adams
Mamdani aside can we just agree that a sitting mayor who can’t even win his own party’s nomination and then polls fourth in the field at 9 percent is just legendary stuff

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.

This is despicable.
NEWS: The D.C. Council voted 7-5 to partially repeal Initiative 82, the voter-approved measure which phases out the tipped minimum wage in D.C. Here are the details of the repeal proposal, sponsored by @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social and @cmchenderson.bsky.social. The details: bsky.app/profile/maus...
I-82 NEWS: Ahead of tomorrow's final D.C. Council vote on '26 budget, @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social and @chenderson.bsky.social will introduce an amendment splitting the difference between those who want to repeal Initiative 82 (which phases out the tipped wage) and those who want to keep it.

Thanks so so much to everyone who came out to the last out of town Bad Moves shows this weekend. It was so nice to see so many friends. We couldn't have asked for a better time.

Our final show is this Saturday 7/ 26 at Black Cat. We'd love to see you there. 💕

I should be asleep, but can’t stop thinking about a striking sanitation worker I met today. He told me about the time a trash bag full of human shit burst in his face, and he had to spend two days in the hospital to ensure he hadn’t contracted any dangerous diseases.

He makes $19 an hour.

i cannot emphasize enough that democratic politicians that are targeted by federal agents in this manner are targeted because what they're doing is effective, and more should do it

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
