In his @DYRSDC testimony this morning, @RaymondNgu raised questions about funding for vocational opportunities and the continued failure to prioritize community-based treatment. As he pointed out during Q&A with CM @trayonwhite, the trade-offs become obvious in tight budgets!

Hint hint DC
It's not enough to praise our care workers, we have to pay them.
DC Mayor Muriel Bowser is announcing the Real Time Crime Center AND a million ways the public can give the police access to their security cameras. You should be afraid. Very afraid no matter how you feel about police, crime, or us. State surveillance is a threat to all of us.…
We have to stop only talking to people who “use to be” and also talk to those who “currently are” in order to craft the appropriate interventions and strategies to address said issue
Without Rosa caring for my daughter, I could not be the ED of DCJWJ. She is constantly teaching me how to be a better parent. And we will fight together for pay equity!
Ideally, one DC agency would oversee and support all VI programs, and since taking office, I have worked hard to make that happen. For OAG to support a merger, we must be assured that these crucial programs will continue to be well-managed, funded, and supported.
The fight against the Mayor’s move to defund DC child care and gut wages for early childhood educators is on. #ProtectPEF
The @WIN_DC family stays ready to organize across race, class, and religion to fight against the immoral #WashingtonDC budget proposed by Madam @MayorBowser. Tonight we heard from @MelissaMBondi of
Thank you @MelissaMBondi for talking to us about #affordablehousing at tonight’s @WIN_DC event. We are building coalitions across divides to fight for a moral budget, which isn’t what @MayorBowser proposed yesterday
Rolling back police accountability isn't the solution to violence. In fact, nothing has changed cops’ ability to “do their jobs”. The truth is they want to do the worst things more with less accountability. Secure DC bill is performative and ineffective. bit.ly/securedc24?utm…
@MayorBowser Why is there money for this and not more social workers and counselors and smaller classes??? Why is there money for this and not free lunch for hungry children?! Let’s get to the sources of the violence and fix that.
