VP candidate?
Letter from the Mayor
Dear
Washingtonians,
As
we head into the weekend, now three months into the COVID-19 public health
emergency and with peaceful protests continuing across the nation, I want to
take this moment to say thank you.
The
past three months have not been easy. But through it all, DC residents have
been there for each other. We have sacrificed together. We have protested
together. We have, time and time again, chosen hope over fear together.
I
was proud last weekend to see so many demonstrators wearing masks while
demanding justice—a true reflection of both this moment in history as well as
our DC values. In DC, we can do both: we can demand change and also acknowledge
the global pandemic that continues to threaten our community.
So,
thank you, DC. Thank you for acknowledging the special responsibility we have
to protect our most vulnerable neighbors. Thank you for sending a clear message
to the nation and the world that Black Lives Matter. And thank you for
continuing to believe that, together, we can build a more fair and more just
America.

Stay
safe, stay healthy, and stay ready to make change.
We
are in this together, DC.
Sincerely,
