DC's Council Members Shirk Responsibility for All Our Residents?
Just back from the Save Our Safety Net rally. Was appalled to watch Vice Gray rush past us at the back entrance to the Wilson Building, without so much as a wave or a handshake. This is a man running for mayor? He won't get my vote until he stands up for all the residents of our city and agrees to raise taxes on our most fortunate citizens.
Then I learned from the organizers that my own Councilmember, Muriel Bowser, refused to meet with the Save Our Safety Net Coalition. Not even a meeting? And Councilmember Bowswer represents Ward 4, an area hard hit by foreclosures and the high cost of housing in our city. Shame!
