Virginia Ali co-opened Ben's Chili Bowl at 24 years old. She drove her kids to school in the morning, worked the counter starting at 11, picked them up in the afternoon & then went back to Ben's. At 92, we are blessed that she is still here with us & greeting guests most days.

I promised Mayor Marion Barry that I would do more for Ward 8 than any Mayor ever had. And I've kept my promise to him. Today, we honor his legacy—memorialized in our buildings and streets, the nation's leading summer youth program, and the hearts of generations of Washingtonians. Happy birthday to DC's champion for last, the lost, and the least: our Mayor for Life, Marion Barry.

I've been honored to serve with countless dedicated city executives and extraordinary frontline workers. For their bold vision, big ideas, personal sacrifices, & relentless pursuit of excellence in service to our great city, I'm deeply grateful. Happy Employee Appreciation Day.

It's the 6th anniversary of Go-Go becoming the official music of Washington, DC. Our creative economy generates $15 billion every year —and we're proud to invest in our artists, creatives, and music right back. Let's celebrate the soundtrack of our lives, Go-Go.🪘🎶
