Today, victory belongs to us. From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank every single person who stood with us—who wrote letters, made calls, signed petitions, shared our message, and showed up when it mattered most. You spoke, they listened.

I spoke with Chief Smith this morning and I'm glad to report that the decision to close DuPont Circle Park is being rescinded. The Park is central to the lgbtq community, and neighbors will be able to enjoy it this year for World Pride. Good news. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/…
