Bowser proposes spending $20 million to build a community center in Ivy City, fulfilling a longtime demand from neighborhood advocates.

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine announced a lawsuit yesterday and a public hearing at the council rages on.

The company says that hosts in D.C. earned $59 million last year from 287,000 visitors.

The bill largely targets people who rent out more than one property.

One of a series of proposals to ensure that those with a record have a fair shot at reentering society.

It is modeled off D.C.’s 2014 legislation that banned employers from looking at a job applicant’s criminal history before extending an offer.

“We’re here to insist that the most vulnerable in our society, particularly these children, have better housing than an industrial site,” one woman said.

The bill was passed despite a debate over police officers’ rights to view body-worn camera footage before writing their initial reports.
