#RestaurantWeek, which has officially been extended to 2/1, is the perfect time to make eating local a priority. Loved stopping by The Grill at The Wharf—amazing food and a great example of the small businesses that make DC so special. #DCEats #SupportLocalDC

Fighting and Delivering for our snowed-in D.C. Seniors!

As a proud Mailman for years in our city, I learned to deliver every day for our neighbors—no matter the weather. It’s who we are at our best.

Thank you to the DPW and DGS employees out there removing snow, and to the Metro workers keeping our buses running! Your work is essential to our city.

@eleanornorton.bsky.social is a giant in DC’s history—a tireless champion for our city’s dignity, democracy, and statehood. I’m grateful for her decades of service, mentorship, and relentless fight for DC residents. Her legacy will endure. #DCStatehood

Thank you so much to every single volunteer who picked up petitions yesterday. One step closer to fighting and delivering for ALL DC.

They killed this man in cold blood. They literally pulled him into a physical encounter that he had not initiated. His back was turned, and he appeared to be attempting to protect and provide aid to the persons who had been pepper sprayed. ICE needs to go now.

Thanks to DC’s Fair Elections Program, we have raised over $1 MILLION in just 7 days! Thank you to every single supporter who chipped in and made this possible. Now let’s go fight and deliver for ALL DC!

Great to meet Bub Carrington and see the Wizards play! Building a stronger DC means supporting our youth and the institutions that bring our communities together.

What a turnout at the MLK Jr. Day annual parade! Thank you all for coming out to support our campaign!

2016: The year I passed the Neighborhood Engagement Achieves Results Act (NEAR) Act on the DC Council. Nearly a decade later, that purpose hasn’t changed. Now we are going to fight and deliver as Mayor of DC!

On the DC Council, I passed the NEAR Act to stop violence before it starts and make DC safer through prevention, not reaction. That’s leadership that delivers.

The new Commanders stadium renderings show what smart, forward-looking leadership can deliver for DC. Proud to have played a part in bringing our team back home. HTTC!

Housing should not be a luxury. As the Mayor of DC, I will be laser focused on protecting tenants, increasing truly affordable housing, and making sure longtime DC residents aren’t pushed out of their own city.

MLK Jr. marched for justice. So will we. Come walk with me in the Martin Luther King Jr. parade this Monday!

DC is not up for grabs. I will ALWAYS protect Home Rule and protect our city.

Today, as USPS honors Muhammad Ali, I’m reminded what it takes to be a champion: courage, work, and heart. I carried your mail; now I’m ready to carry your voice—to fight and deliver for this community.
January 16, 2026 at 3:10 AM
On the DC Council, I helped deliver real results—libraries, schools, parks, and economic development—in all eight wards. Making our communities safer also means making them a better place to live.
January 15, 2026 at 11:13 PM
HUGE NEWS: We just hit 1,000 DC donors and counting—and that means we officially qualify for the Fair Elections Program.

Thank you for making this possible. Let’s go fight and deliver for all DC.

I’ve spent my career standing up to racial profiling and excessive force. I know how to fight for a just city and how to build bridges to get things done. People want solutions, not noise. That’s what I’m going to fight and deliver for all DC.

WE MADE HISTORY! Thanks to the grassroots support across all 8 wards of DC, we raised a groundbreaking $181,364 in the first day after announcing our campaign.

We are so grateful for your support. Let’s go fight and deliver for ALL DC.

I’m running for mayor of Washington, DC. This is an open seat. A new chapter. On my watch, I will remind everyone exactly whose home this is: the people of DC. And it sure as hell isn’t ICE’s.
