Ward 1 Update: Fighting for fairness while talking taxes

Fundamentally, the tax and revenue proposals the Council discussed are about fairness.

Bill to protect ride-hailing drivers and passengers gets first hearing 

A D.C. Council Committee heard seven hours of testimony Monday on legislation that would reign in rogue ride-hailing services like Empower and overhaul the District’s for-hire-vehicle laws.

Council considers Nadeau tax measures, among others 

Reforming our tax code is about ensuring a fair, shared responsibility for the programs and services – for safe and clean streets, for public infrastructure, for housing assistance, for healthy food access – that we all rely on. Our District must work for all of us, not just those who can most easily afford it.

Ward 1 Update: Taking care of each other

I have always believed that the way we treat our most vulnerable communities is a measure of how well the District is doing.

Ward 1 Update: Fall preview

Council is back in session, and we will see a flurry of activity as we approach the end of the two-year Council Period in December. Any bills that don’t make it all the way through the process by the end of the year will go away for good, unless a Councilmember introduces a similar one next Council Period. Legislative meeting agendas will be full as Councilmembers attempt to push legislation over the finish line.

Report calls out Empower’s operations, Nadeau to introduce new legislation

A D.C. Council oversight committee accepted a preliminary investigative report into controversial ride-hailing company Empower today, calling for legislation to clarify, once-and-for-all, that the way the company operates is illegal.
