for
DC Delegate to the
House of Representatives
– A New Way! –
Demand Democracy. Demand Action.
I'm running for DC Delegate to the House of Representatives to advance a new approach for immediately removing a lawless administration and securing representative democracy for all, including DC Citizens.
The time for action is now.
I hope you'll join me!
THE CANDIDATE and THE MISSION
Working to build the support DC Citizens need and deserve in our fight for voting rights!
A proud native of Washington, DC, I’m a husband, father, and small business owner in the DMV area, where I run both for-profit and non-profit ventures. My dedication to community activism began with my role as an area lead for Organizing for Action (formerly Obama for Action). I went on to create Stand-Ups for DC, an initiative that harnesses the power of comedy to shine a spotlight on the need for DC Statehood. I also founded and currently direct March WITH Washington, a movement committed to achieving justice for DC residents.
As your Delegate, I promise to take a different approach to gaining DC Statehood; one that is bold, innovative, and grounded in the collective power of our community.
We will no longer wait for the Constitution to be changed, to win every branch of government, or to gain favor from those, clearly, more interested in political and personal power than representative democracy.
This will no longer be treated as a multi-generational aspiration.
The dictatorial relationship between our federal government and the citizens of the nation's capital will no longer be ignored.
THE REASON
I’m running because no democracy can survive lawlessness at the top and injustice at its core.
This is bigger than D.C.
I’m running to take immediate action to remove a lawless, ineligible president, and to finally secure D.C. Statehood as a vital step toward restoring representative democracy for all.
Despite clear constitutional prohibitions, insurrectionists currently sit atop our government. And although the injustice of taxation without representation has been recognized since our country’s founding, it remains the daily reality for the citizens of our nation’s capital.
These may appear to be separate issues; they are not.
They stem from the same disregard for democratic principles and, together, threaten the survival of what was always meant to be a republic.
At this point, the criminality of this administration should no longer be in dispute;
nor should the unjust, dictatorial relationship Congress maintains with D.C. citizens.
In both cases, what’s missing isn’t evidence.
It’s the creativity, the courage, and the coordination to act.
Irreparable harm is being done daily. Waiting for the next election is not enough.
That’s why I intend to take action during this campaign, not just after it.
I will use this platform to outline specific, lawful plans for the immediate removal of this administration.
And I will expose the illogical misinterpretation of the Constitution that suggests D.C. residents were ever meant to live under dictatorship.
The urgency of correcting both crises, national and the local, is paramount to protecting our republic.
Now, I’m asking for your help to apply immediate pressure on Congressional leadership to take specific steps to remove an ineligible president, cabinet, and all those actively supporting an ongoing insurrection.
That action must be immediately followed by a renewed and coordinated push for D.C. Statehood; a change that would strengthen democracy by ending minority-manufactured gridlock that blocks widely supported laws and reforms.
D.C. Statehood will:
-
Break that gridlock,
-
Help root out corruption,
-
Protect our planet,
-
Reduce mass shootings,
-
Insulate our courts from political infiltration, and
-
Let Americans govern ourselves like mature adults committed to democracy.
This is our moment to act with vision, urgency, and purpose.
I hope you’ll join me.
Let’s run together...for a better D.C. and a more perfect union.
