D.C.’s Green New Deal uses social housing and lead remediation workforce to limit climate change.

New residents are starting to move onto the old Walter Reed Army Medical Center campus in Northwest D.C., which is being redeveloped into a large mixed-use site.

This year’s elections mean a majority of the legislature will be women as of 2021.

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.

Renée Bowser, a labor lawyer, seven-term Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner in Petworth, and Ward 4 Democratic State Committeemember, is running to represent the District’s northernmost ward.

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.
