@maustermuhle @GoreforDC .@ChevyChaseVoice wants DC to act NOW on The Huntington Apts, Intelsat & excess space at UDC campus which are: -available now. -cheaper. -will yield more AH /soc.h. family units in CC & W3. Modernize the CC Library and CommCtr. w/o housing @CMFrumin @CMLewisGeorgeW4 @maustermuhle

Interesting: Former D.C. Council candidate and current ANC commissioner @GoreforDC has launched a new group to help push forward the a planned redevelopment of the Chevy Chase library and rec center to include housing on top. (She has advocated for housing as a commissioner.)

I just exercised my right as a Member of Congress to conduct an unannounced oversight visit of the ICE field facility in Baltimore. The staff I met with respected my right to visit, but what I saw was disgraceful. Kristi Noem has a budget of $75 billion she could use to ensure humane conditions, but we saw 60 men packed into a room shoulder-to-shoulder, 24-hours-a-day, with a single toilet in the room and no shower facilities. They sleep like sardines with aluminum foil blankets. Whether it’s for three days or seven days, nobody would want a member of their family warehoused there. The room set aside for dangerous criminals and violent offenders was empty. We’re demanding immediate answers and action.

At meet&greet, mayoral candidate Gary Goodweather @goodweather4dc said “we should not be giving away public land” for proposed new library, comm. ctr, a plan rejected by ChevyChaseDC community. @CMFrumin @CMLewisGeorgeW4 @anc34g @OPinDC

@Meagan_Flynn The @demped 8-story pick, w 123 luxury units, is another giveaway of public land to for-profit developers. New “affordable” units in Ward 3 cost over 2.8M to build, mostly studios, with hefty subsidies and builder fees paid for by DC taxpayers. See P7 lims.dccouncil.gov/downloads/LIMS…

In Chevy Chase, the debate rages on over putting housing on top of the library and community center -- a major $43M+ redevelopment project that is moving forward, and driving a wedge in the neighborhood. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2026/…

@Meagan_Flynn @axios #ChevyChaseDC is economically & racially diverse, with seniors & limited income residents in rent control units and more renter residents than in any other ward. CC has #W3’s only Public Housing project, @DC_Housing, Regency Hse, 5201 Conn. Ave.

@Meagan_Flynn The lede in @Meagan_Flynn’s story on #ChevyChaseDC development, “in D.C's wealthiest neighborhood” is categorically wrong❗️ For eg, @axios puts Kent 1st & CC 8th, axios.com/local/washingt…

@maustermuhle @MayorBowser @OPinDC @CMFrumin @OZinDC @Janeese4DC @Meagan_Flynn .@MayorBowser’s claim of 15,000 aff housing units built not match DC auditor’s @ODCA_DC number - 1,966. Nearly 500 acres of DC public land to for-profit developers for only 1,966 units of housing❗️ Chevy Chase developer pick is bait and switch rerun. @DMPEDDC

@maustermuhle @MayorBowser Bait & switch by Mayor Bowser @MayorBowser again❗️ Promise to community of workforce housing not in city’s developer choice; 123 luxury “market rate” units. Chevy Chase Voice @ChevyChaseVoice was right all along. @OPinDC @CMFrumin @OZinDC @Janeese4DC @Meagan_Flynn

NEWS: @MayorBowser has selected a development team to rebuild the Chevy Chase Civic Center as a new library, community center, and 177 units of market-rate and affordable housing. It will also have a public plaza, park, amphitheater, and roof terrace.

Thank you, @kenyanmcduffie for answering my request on @politicshour to meet w @ChevyChaseVoice about the city’s plan to rebuild/replace our library & comm. ctr. #ChevyChase @OPinDC @tomsherwood @Nnamdikid @CMFrumin @CMLewisGeorgeW4  @DMPEDDC

@CalltoActivism @ChevyChaseVoice supports @MayorBowser response to @realDonaldTrump takeover of #MPD & fed police surge. But why shut 3rd Distrct MPD station 1626 V St NW, close to “Big Balls” attack, wo replacement❓ @tomsherwood @SegravesNBC4 @Meagan_Flynn @SamPKCollins

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: DC Mayor Muriel Bowser OBLITERATES Trump’s National Guard threats - revealing violent crime in D.C. is at its lowest level in THREE DECADES. This isn’t about crime or protecting D.C. Trump is staging a show to seize control of the Capital and grab more power.

Please tell me how shutting down the Chemical Safety Board - you know, the people who investigate the causes of major chemical incidents - will make America great again. 🙄🫣😳 washingtonpost.com/climate-enviro…

ANC 3/4G just voted 6-0-1 for a Contested Hearing for Chevy Chase UPZoning Case 23-25. CM Frumin should support this ANC resolution before the decision tomorrow and ask ZC to re-do the hearing as a "Contested" case to allow residents & businesses to have a full voice.

@ScottTaylorTV @JustinRGoodman @WhiteCoatWaste @DeptVetAffairs our tax dollars on inhumane animal testing. disgusting, cruel and a total tax rip off.

HISTORIC EVENT: Listen to @JustinRGoodman with @WhiteCoatWaste about discovering the @DeptVetAffairs was about to start experimenting on cats again. How a huge public push & federal lawmakers coming together aided in halting the research.
