I was shocked to read that the Supreme Court declined to hear the case for D.C. statehood. I really thought this time around, we had a shot at finally getting representation. Iโ€™m truly dejected by the courtโ€™s decision. What should residents who are fighting for this cause do now?

Giving Back

Happy to see that Chase Bank is investing in Ward 7 and 8. From what Iโ€™ve seen, they are investing in a lot of economically deprived neighborhoods around the country. Kudos to them; however, I will be waiting to see the tangible benefits of their investments in our community.
