DC pays while the Commanders get to keep virtually all the money.

We are asking our Councilmembers to push for a deal in the best interest of residents, rather than giving in to pressure from the mayor, the Commanders, and federal officials to rush the process and spend DC taxpayer money unwisely.

We partnered with @win-dc.bsky.social and Community Change for "People Over Profit: Tax Justice for All"—a powerful action that brought together faith leaders, economists, and advocates outside the U.S. Treasury demanding a tax system rooted in justice, equity, and shared prosperity.

Last night, WIN community leaders showed up & spoke out against Washington Gas’s proposed rate hike. At the Public Service Commission rate case hearing, they made it clear: our communities can't afford to pay more for polluting energy. Let's make DC more affordable not less.

Yesterday, Faith leaders, residents, & advocates joined in prayer, song, and protest. This is what moral courage looks like. From DC to communities across the country, we are demanding a tax system rooted in justice—not greed. #PeopleOverProfit

Just attended the report release webinar. This is amazing work, thanks for sharing your findings and how you did it. Inspiring!
Our team has seen impacts of burning fossil fuels in our homes through citizen science stove testing. We tested 663 kitchens & the results are clear. We must choose a healthy & equitable future - a future without burning methane gas.

Today we tested the indoor air quality of a kitchen with a gas stove & it went above the EPA’s standard within 15 minutes.

Stay tuned because tomorrow we will release our findings from a 2 year citizen science investigation in with Beyond Gas DC
