Todd will serve as the company’s director of corporate public policy.

Ward 4 candidate Janeese Lewis George’s campaign signs were taken down by the Department of Public Works last week.

The campaign of Janeese Lewis George, who’s running for the Ward 4 D.C. Council seat, made the announcement Wednesday.

That leaves two Democratic challengers vying for the seat held by incumbent Brandon Todd, who’s seeking the position for the third time.

Janeese Lewis George says “Ward 4 deserves a strong, independent voice that is going to be unbossed and unbought by developers, contractors, and the current [mayoral] administration.”

Councilmember Brandon Todd says the lemonade stand controversy that roiled Ward 4 last year was not the impetus for his bill.

“In every election since Councilmember Todd has joined the Council, including one in which he was not on the ballot, he has violated the city’s election laws,” the open letter reads.

This isn’t the first time D.C. Councilmember Brandon Todd has faced sanctions related to his campaigns for office.

Using government resources to support a candidate for elected office is against the rules in D.C., but that’s exactly what some people say one D.C. Council member has done.

A new bill from Ward 4 Councilmember Brandon Todd would establish an Office of Nightlife for the District, following New York, Amsterdam, and other cities.
