In addition to making DC whole for the $755M we were shortchanged in the #CARESact, the #AmericanRescuePlan means direct support:

~85% of American households will receive a direct check of $1400 per person; the typical family of 4 making $100K will get $5600 in direct payments
The ARP will lift 11 million people out of poverty, and cut child poverty in half this year.

The ARP will deliver an expanded Child Tax Credit to the families of 66M kids, & it makes the most significant investment in American child care since World War II.

#AmericanRescuePlan
The ARP will significantly reduce health insurance premiums for millions of American families. A family of four making $90,000 could see their monthly premium come down by $200 per month.

#AmericanRescuePlan
The ARP creates a Small Business Opportunity Fund to provide growth capital to main street small businesses in economically disadvantaged areas and for Black- and Brown-owned businesses.

#AmericanRescuePlan = #DCHOPE

My police department will always protect DC and all who are in it whether I agree with them (such as those exercising their First Amendment Right) or those I don’t (namely, @realdonaldtrump)...
While he hides behind his fence afraid/alone, I stand w/ people peacefully exercising their First Amendment Right after the murder of #GeorgeFloyd & hundreds of years of institutional racism

There are no vicious dogs & ominous weapons. There is just a scared man. Afraid/alone...
I call upon our city and our nation to exercise great restraint even while this President continues to try to divide us. Our power is in peace, in our voices and ultimately at the ballot box in November...

Hill Restaurant Group —

While I recognize that all of us have been stressed beyond our immediate understanding of how coronavirus has so quickly upended our daily lives and personal and business existence — you must comply with the DC Health notice.
We all have an obligation to do our part to contain the spread of this global pandemic and get to the business of recovery as soon as possible.

Until then, your compliance is required, and we will exercise the full force of our MPD, FEMS, DC Health and ABRA...
...and the emergency authority to achieve it.

Meanwhile, I hope your patrons will encourage you to modify your operations at the soonest, to consider grab & go and delivery options in your food serving establishments...
