Love this campaign every year @wmata.com. Couldn’t help but smile listening to Chase’s chipper announcement this morning!

We’re kicking off Women’s History Month by celebrating our Brick Wall! 🧱

On Sept. 13 2025, with a shutout against KC Current, Aubrey Kingsbury became the FIRST goalie in National Women's Soccer League history to record a shutout against every single opponent in the league! 💪 (14 total at the time)

PRETTY SURE CANTORE MEANS BANGERS ONLY IN ITALIAN

Lollll “if Cantore will ever score a normal goal” 😂 Honestly I hope not, these work just fine!

It's tempting to think the status quo will keep our neighborhoods the same as they are now, but it won't.

Instead, it will worsen our housing shortage — pushing families out, draining revenue from our city, and emptying out storefronts.

Our communities will pay a visible price.

I learned about how #HeirsProperty laws dispossessed Black Americans of BILLIONS of dollars of property in less than 100 years. Which throws the US #Housing crisis into sharp relief.

that entrenched white supremacy has socialized us to view as so far-fetched they can be framed as fairy tales. This is a beautiful story about self discovery, family, home, #Appalachia, the power and privilege of self-autonomy, joy, and so much more.

Came on here to say I just finished reading #HappyLand (appropriately on @wmata.com because protagonist Nikki is from DC!) by @dolenperkinsvaldez.bsky.social & hope anyone seeing this adds it to your reading list! At 37yrs old I’m amazed to still be learning true stories about Black American history

Extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits for the next year will cost $23 billion.

Donald Trump was happy to round up $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but Republicans won’t lift a finger to help American families who are struggling to pay for health care.

What happens when a city takes women’s unpaid work seriously? Bogotá’s radical experiment in caregiving is going global.

Just HAD to ask Leicy Santos about her viral moment at the CONMEBOL final when she kissed the ball before firmly planting a free kick in the back of the net.

Column | How the Washington Spirit embraced the soul of D.C. During an anxious time in the nation’s capital, the NWSL team and its fans cemented a bond.

“No pro franchise in town has leaned into the District, its residents and the issues they care about the way the Spirit has. It’s a beautiful combination of organic and intentional.”

Read Barry Svlurga in today’s @postsports.bsky.social:

To the Washington Spirit: To say this year in DC was full of turmoil, uncertainty, and division would be an understatement. Inside of Audi Field however, we could unite as one community sharing in the experience of solidarity and fantastic Washington Spirit soccer. Audi wouldn’t be Rowdy without you, bringing us joy each and every game. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a light in such a difficult time. Now, with one game left and the championship trophy on the line, we look forward to cheering as loudly as possible for you one last time this season. Whether it’s in San Jose or at a watch party in DC, know that we’re rooting for you as your twelfth player. We’re so proud to be your supporters. The Spirit Squadron
