John come on tell them take this gate down! People don’t have access to home or school because of this gate! You shouldn’t block a public sidewalk that gives access to public housing. – at Washington, DC
Replying to @DOES_DC
@DOES_DC @311DCgov Who ever owns Langston Dwellings recently put up a gate and blocked kids access to and from schools Even the residents who live here and attend school in the area do not have access to get home. I hope this gate wasn’t payed for by tax dollars!!!!

I'm sure it is 100% coincidence these planters appeared in the exact same spot where people sleep. Yet again, the DC government, the National Park Service, & businesses are working together to turn all of DC into a no-camping zone.

@gsonnemann @MurielBowser @MayorBowser @ncbwdc all it takes is for Bowser to appoint lesbian or gay black professionals and you all shut up fall in line and put your heads down. Complacency is apart of the crime. You all r not role models at all. Take it how u want

DC Budget news: The Mayor's budget will not be released (or fully released?) tomorrow. This means we have more time to ensure that her budget includes $26 million to end chronic homelessness!
Tune in now for a discussion on the FY23 budget, which will NOT be released tomorrow due to a debt cap issue. The mayor’s presentation tomorrow may still be moving forward as planned.

Tenants are putting in the work 💪 to preserve affordable housing The tenant rights we have in DC, including TOPA, were won by tenant organizers like the Buena Vista residents. I covered their plans to form a co-op for @streetsensedc
The tenants of Buena Vista Apartments in Columbia Heights are forming a co-op — a win for the 21 residents who have been on rent strike since May 2020. (story via @streetsensedc) dcist.com/story/22/02/17/bue…

I didn't post last night because honestly, I have struggled to find the words to express my utter disgust with CM Cheh's comments blaming our unhoused neighbors and young people for the violence in DC. It is racist, harmful & doesn't lead to safer communities.

How does the DC Council’s Office of Racial Equity assess the racial equity impact of Council bills? Sign up here.
Check out our Blog: Getting to the CORE! Read our first post, "Symptoms and Structures," where we detail our new approach to determine whether a bill addresses the symptoms of racial inequity, the deeper structures that reinforce racial inequity, or both:dcracialequity.org/blog-symp…

.@MayorBowser's housing goals consists of two-thirds being market rate units, and only one-third affordable to those earning up to $72K - $103K (depending on household size), w/ implementation of the latter lagging. Anybody impressed? washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

This is stupid. Biden has options administratively to bring BIG, life-changing relief to student loan borrowers and is *choosing* to do nothing.

I was at the NJ & O St encampment clearing. If the mayor had been, she would have seen what I saw - confusion and chaos. Residents told me they had no idea where they were going or how long they would be housed even as they and their belongings were being moved.
In her email newsletter, @MayorBowser directly addresses an issue very much in the news this week: her pilot program to offer residents of encampments housing before clearing those encampments. “The dangers and risks of living outside are too great for us to ignore,” she writes.
