I have been horrified and outraged by the conduct perpetrated by federal law enforcement officers, including ICE agents, targeting our most vulnerable neighbors — especially unhoused and undocumented residents who are simply trying to live their lives. This cruelty is the opposite of who we are as a District and as a community who has long stood up for those who need protection most.

That’s why I’m excited to announce a new initiative to lead on this critical work: Reimagining Georgia Avenue.
