Unlike most of his colleagues, Ward 5 D.C. Council member Harry “Tommy” Thomas, Jr. isn’t taking the summer off from reaching out to his constituents. He can’t afford to, because the man has to run for re-election soon! Thomas has scheduled a series of “Councilmember on Your Corner” events this week (hat tip Bloomingdale (for now)), where Ward 5 residents can come and share their thoughts and concerns with their elected representative while standing in the heat out on the sidewalk. Got anything you’d like to say to Tommy? You can find him tonight from 5 to 7 p.m. up in Brookland, at the corner of 12th and Monroe Streets NE, and during the same time period on Tuesday in Bloomingdale (1st St. and RI Ave. NW), on Wednesday at the Lamond Riggs Library (5401 South Dakota Ave. NE) and on Thursday in Langston Carver at a location to be determined. Check Thomas’s web site for updates.
