As @sunrisemvmt highlights enviro justice, I want to note how @SecretaryPerry framed the issue last week at the E&C hearing.
Rep. Barragán (D-CA) asked Perry what enviro justice means to him. It's at 2:34 here: energycommerce.house.gov/committee-acti…

"Environmental justice to me is being able to pay an electrical rate that I can afford and at the same time knowing that the emissions are not going up because of the decisions made," Sec. Perry said.
#DCNative pride was on full display last night on U Street. This was a part of the #DontMuteDC movement. The music is back on at the Shaw @MetroByTMobile store, but locals are making it clear that go go music is here to stay! @wusa9 #GetUpDC (Video: @andkevin_ )
A lot of people proud to be #DCNatives and sticking up for the local culture @GianniBoler @wusa9 #GetUpDC #DontMuteDC
Check out this tweet from @SheilaABrennan. She’s calling on people respect and take the time to learn about DC culture and history. Dope. @wusa9 #DontMuteDC #GetUpDC

NEW: More than 9,000 people signed a petition, after a D.C. business owner says he was forced to turn down his music on 7th St. NW. More reaction @ 10 & 11 on @abc7dc.
“Tell T-mobile, the city, and residents who don't understand the cultural significance and history of go-go music in Washington, D.C. that this is unacceptable. Bring back the music!” - Petition change.org/p/ronald-moten…
NOW: Dispute between Ron Moten, who started petition, and resident who says he wants business to turn down the go-go music on 7th St. NW.
I used to walk past that #MetroPCS store everyday during my first 2 years of high school. As soon as you hit 7th & Florida, you’d hear gogo and buy a mixtape. Can’t believe people are trying to silence our culture as the area becomes more and more gentrified @wusa9 #DontMuteDC

If you know me, you know I love everything about DC culture. When I did this story about #mumbosauce last year, where did I go?!?! 7TH AND FLORIDA AVENUE!!!! Got to have the go go in the background! #DCNative #DontMuteDC #GetUpDC
