Tomorrow marks 25 years since September 11, 2001. In solemn observance, we will pause all service across our system for one minute at 9:37 a.m.
We invite you to join us in this moment of remembrance as we honor the lives lost and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.

For the first time, the nation's Fourth of July celebrations in Washington, D.C., have been designated a National Special Security Event (NSSE), with the @SecretService leading security planning and coordination alongside the @DC_HSEMA. @DCPoliceDept, the @FBI, and dozens of other federal, state, and local partners. @CBSNews @NicoleSganga got an exclusive look behind the fence lines, walking past layers of anti-scale barriers for a sneak peek at the extensive protective operation.
A heartfelt thank you to the literally thousands of federal agents, police officers, state troopers, military personnel, and mission support professionals who have spent the last several months planning and preparing for this event alongside us. This is truly a whole-of-government effort. – at Washington, DC

Over the past several weeks, Secret Service police officers, special agents, and support teams screened and secured materials needed to build the #UFC arena on the South Grounds of the White House. From the first wrench and hammer to the finished arena, they made it happen. – at Washington, DC

Each of the first four games of the NBA Finals between the Knicks and Spurs has been within four points in the final minute of regulation.
The last Finals series to begin with four such games was in 1973, when the Knicks faced the Lakers.

A detail that struck me when reporting this story:
Each Teen Spring Jam event earlier this month cost DPR an estimated average of $148k (and as much $186.5k). That's not including the traffic control, janitorial staff or MPD officers at the events.
If the city is investing that much $$, why do people still think there's nothing to do? A DPR Deputy Director told me that people "just need to get involved in their local rec centers and not read headlines or watch social media clips..."
I'm back!
There's been a lot of discourse about D.C. youth, so for my first story @CityCast_DC I decided to talk TO the teens, not just ABOUT them.
I spoke with 10 teens about youth curfew, whether there's enough for them to do, etc. Read here:
