USDOT, and a major outlet, are framing DC’s automated traffic enforcement program as a cash grab. The cameras are essential tools for keeping people safe on our streets from scofflaw drivers. But the revenues should go to Vision Zero as the Council intended, not DC’s general budget.

Netflix has plans to set up shop downtown, just a few blocks away from other tech outposts (and the White House). If it comes to pass, the marriage of arts and economic development as official strategies might become more commonplace in the District.

Cold weather is one of several environmental factors that affects housing stability in DC. Lead and mold are also among the issues that can push residents out of their homes.
