He’ll listen to everyone, take their concerns seriously, give them respect, and make the best decision based on his values. Finally, he will not pit communities against each other for political gain.

Lisa Raymond

Council Chair and Chief of Staff to the D.C. Attorney General, Raymond is not afraid to get in the weeds to make good public policy. She is honest, trustworthy, and not afraid to stand up to entrenched interests. These qualities will serve her well on the Council.
Jackie Reyes
D.C. Council (Ward 1)As the head of D.C.’s Office of Neighborhood Services, Jackie Reyes knows how to get things done. Her unstoppable energy and focus on quality-of-life issues make her an ideal Councilmember for Ward 1. While many of her opponents are more interested in interest group politics and issues far afield from increasing public safety, economic development, and delivering public services efficiently and realizable in Ward 1, that is not the case with Jackie Reyes. She will fight for the issues Ward 1 voters care most about.
