Council just gave final & unanimous approval to our STEER Act to hold dangerous drivers accountable. Last year, DC issued 50,000+ tickets for speeding 20-30 mph OVER the limit. Our law creates commonsense measures to reduce speeding & reckless driving on our neighborhood streets.

The entire Georgia Avenue NW corridor is in desperate need of a road diet! Implementation of the Georgia Ave. Bus Priority Project will help, but DDOT DC will need to implement additional tools here to truly make it safer! buspriority.ddot.dc.gov/pages/georgiaa…

Have you ever felt underwhelmed by #plantbased options at restaurants? A lot of it has to do with menu design ➡️reinventing menus to celebrate #sustainable options cultivates a strong consumer base that will continuously buy plant-based foods Plant rich menus = plant rich diets

The new Ward 8 Woods tracker is a great visualization of the scale of illegal dumping + trash harming communities in Ward 8 This would be unacceptable in other neighborhoods. Residents deserve better and they deserve access to clean, safe parks. arcgis.com/apps/dashboard…

Across the nation, most people love the National Park Service. The story is a little different in D.C. A place to gather, play, walk your dog — all are absent from D.C. parks. Learn more here: politi.co/3TpMO8t POLITICO #NationalParkService #DCParks

Ignoring climate science won’t stop the storms, heatwaves, or health crises. We need evidence-based action—now. 🗣 Professor Timothy Holtz: "The price of denial is staggering — in lives lost, homes destroyed, futures erased." usatoday.com/story/opinion/… Timothy Holtz USA TODAY
