Protecting core services for residents, keeping our city clean & more

this Committee worked to balance funds among these agencies and programs to ensure the most efficient use of taxpayer funds and protect core services for residents, including behind-the-scenes operational programs that make the rest of the work of government possible.

Funding safe schools & welcoming parks

With this budget, the Facilities Committee has made investments in all eight wards, serving every population from our youngest to our most senior.

Ward 1 Update: Budget deep dive

There’s a lot to unpack in the Mayor’s proposed budget for FY27, but the overall and very disturbing theme that comes across clearly is that she has gutted the social safety net while not asking anything of the District’s wealthy residents.

Sunsetting the Teen Curfew Law

Council approved an amendment I introduced to sunset the law in two years. That means that the teen curfew law won’t continue past December 31, 2028. Not only does that limit the harm, it also forces District government to come up with real solutions sooner.

Nadeau amendment would sunset proposed teen curfew

The teen curfew law up for a final vote in the D.C. Council on Tuesday would expire at the end of 2028, under a new amendment being proposed by Councilmember Brianne K. Nadeau, D-Ward 1. A second amendment by Nadeau would prevent police from bringing teens detained solely for a curfew violation to a detention center.

Ward 1 Update: There’s No Plan for That in the Budget

There’s a lot to unpack in the Mayor’s proposed budget for FY27, but the overall and very disturbing theme that comes across clearly is that she has gutted the social safety net while not asking anything of the District’s wealthy residents.

Committee on Public Works & Operations FY 2027 Budget Oversight Schedule

The Council received the Mayor’s FY 2027 budget proposal this week. We have used performance oversight hearings these past two months to examine the work of the agencies and will review the budget with an eye to maintaining and building a D.C. aligned with our shared values.

Ward 1 Update: Same space, more housing

What if every medium-sized building had space for 10-15% more units? The Council gave unanimous approval this week to my bill that will help us to find out.

Building code change would help address housing shortage

The D.C. Council gave unanimous approval today to legislation that would allow developers to build more units and higher-quality housing in small and mid-sized buildings through a change to the building code.

Ward 1 Update: A viable place to develop new housing

At a time when it is popular to lament the apparent slowdown in new housing and the shortage of affordable housing, these and other projects provide evidence that D.C. remains a viable and attractive place to develop new housing.
