This is what happens when you arbitrarily remove all independent voices from a deeply troubled agency. You empower continued abuse of authority at the cost of the cities most vulnerable. Thank you @ChmnMendelson and @CMRobertWhiteDC

.@DC_Housing Director Brenda Donald received a $41,250 bonus on Jan. 6, 2023, but the agency is being tight-lipped about what criteria she met to earn the maximum annual amount allowed under her contract. washingtoncitypaper.com/article/593974…

I hope @CMRobertWhiteDC performs his oversight duty and looks into how @DC_Housing "balances" its budget. Rather unique approach to business I do give them that. If only it was that easy......

ICYMI from last week, I spoke with four of the non-mayoral appointees who were removed from the @DC_Housing board of commissioners. They feel like their removal was retaliation for calling out the agency's failures.

The Council’s efforts to reform DCHA meant that 4 of the most critical members of its governing board lost their seats. Nobody, including much of the Council, asked them about any of this. But @mitchryals did! They feel punished for “standing our ground.” washingtoncitypaper.com/article/586197…

Slover and others at the mtg this AM asked participants to call councilmembers to urge them to reject the bill and to call Bowser's office and demand a more transparent reform process that focuses on executive director and staff as well as board. 8/

Commissioner Ann Hoffman, another dissenting voice, made the point that Bowser previously could have, and still could, appoint the new members named in her emergency bill w/o removing members such as herself, Slover, and elected resident commissioners. 9/

Hoffman also points out that Bowser's bill includes one public resident housing resident rep but no seat for voucher holders, who make up about 2/3 of DCHA's clients. 10/

Here is an email Slover sent in Oct. 2021 to HUD's regional public housing director Marilyn O'Sullivan asking to speak about "current issues at the agency." O'Sullivan alerted DCHA two months later that HUD would conduct an on-site assessment. washingtoncitypaper.com/article/546162… 7/

@MayorBowser - does your statement below only apply to Washingtonians who volunteer to serve on commissions and speak up about their concerns if they advance your agenda? Silencing people with alternative views undermines democracy. washingtoncitypaper.com/article/580158…
Mayor Muriel Bowser@MayorBowser

Washingtonians who volunteer to serve on commissions should not be ostracized when they speak up abt their concerns on the very commission on which they serve All four women were previously nominated by me and confirmed by the Council All four should be re-confirmed on Tuesday
