Councilmember Nadeau gave opening remarks during the nomination hearing for Pamela Smith as chief of the Metropolitan Police Department, where she has been in "acting" capacity since July. Councilmember Nadeau told her she is encouraged by some of the things she has said to me and publicly, such as support for more community engagement by officers and distributing police resources where crime is highest.

On Sunday evening, an individual was captured on video throwing what appeared to be homemade incendiary devices at the Embassy of Cuba on 16th Street NW.

A summary of community engagement, public safety investments in Ward 1 and Mount Pleasant, and legislative and budget measures from Councilmember Nadeau.
