I have requested a special ANC 5F meeting for September 2 at 6pm ET to consider a resolution condemning the ongoing federal overreach.
There is a narrative out there that DC residents support it that Congress should let it extend past September 10. We must counter!

ANC 5F has asked for this multiple times and awaits DDOT response to our most recent resolution on it:

The car on the MBT this evening was an MPD officer on official business.
I still don't buy that it's safe but it was deliberate and lawful.
This time. Still need hardened bollards or planters at MBT entrances at R, Randolph, S, and T streets NE, @DDOTDC @311DCgov !

Some more photos of people struggling across the Bryant St bridge that remains unplowed as of this morning. It's a key link for thousands to reach RI Ave Metro station.
This happened last year and @DCDPW it would not be forgotten next time.... Help @MayorBowser !

We (@ANC5F ) are actively re-escalating this ongoing issue to DDOT. It's only a matter of time before something worse happens.

Commissioner Sahni @Aru5F02 and I on the now the Rhode Island Avenue metro bridge, ramps, and steps now cleared of ice and snow.
We share what it took to get agencies to remember this bridge and the MBT exist and need to be part of pretreatment and post-snow clearing plans.

DC has major food access and affordability issues for entire sections of the city, our seniors, and the poor. The fight to increase SNAP benefits is not merely a financial decision but a moral one. We must stop making budgetary decisions on the backs of our vulnerable residents.
#BREAKING it appears the @councilofdc is now looking to take @MayorBowser to court for withholding a SNAP benefit increase.
Told @ChmnMendelson circulated an emergency resolution this AM that would allow the council’s general council to do such, planning to take up next Tues

From MPD:
Several recent robberies on/near the Metropolitan Branch Trail b/w NY Ave & RI Ave.
The suspects have all been masked juveniles in groups of 2 to 5.
MPD has stepped up presence and last night caught suspects in the car they used, but the victim could not make an ID.
Commissioner Jen Anderson (ANC5F05) retweeted
Don't take your eye off this: DC has $39 million ready to give residents with #SNAP an increase to make up the gap since pandemic funding ended. But the Mayor is refusing to follow the law. I sent this letter w/Council colleagues urging the Mayor to follow the budget she signed.
ICYMI: We sent a letter urging Mayor Bowser to reconsider the decision to disregard District law and deny District residents an increase to their SNAP benefits in 2024.
