We're rising because people are realizing that the DC Delegate job is not varsity city council.
We need someone in Congress who's fought and won for DC on the national stage.
That's not Robert or Brooke. It's me.
I had an amazing time at the Ward 5 Forum today! Thank you so much to all the volunteers, community members, and leaders who came out to engage with and support our campaign for DC Delegate ❤️
Every day we get closer to June 16 we just keep on gaining momentum!
Proud to have helped feed the hungry attendees of the Ward 5 Forum today!
“…80% of today’s DC voters could not vote in DC the last time this city had any kind of serious conversation about what this job is or who should fill it”
“I have learned in my long career working in jobs where I've had power & where I've had no power that when you have no formal power, the way you get things done is you recruit allies and partners to your side…So I think the main job of the Delegate is to find us allies & partners across the country”
“I think the [Delegate] job is two things…autonomy and economy…the autonomy bucket is everything up to and including statehood…But the other half, to my mind, is economic growth…We have learned the hard way that we're a company Company town, and the company hates us!”
“I’m running for Congress because Trump is crushing us and we need an experienced national fighter who knows how to push back…I want to offer my services, my skills, my relationships, my networks, to the city I love!”
DC deserves better!
Mean girls style politics and squabbling isn’t going to win us statehood, protect DC’s people from a hostile President, nor strengthen our economy.
DC deserves a Delegate who is focused on the fights which matter and can actually win them!
Sitting down for an interview on the Final Five on Fox 5 DC. It will air tonight at 11:30pm est. Please be sure to tune in!
Happy Emancipation Day DC!
I’m focused on the fight that matters!
Happy birthday to my friend and supporter Ana Rodriguez! Thank you for having me at your celebration last night ❤️
My statement decrying “OppoGate” as a distraction from DC’s real fight in the DC Delegate race.
She’s touting all her national political experience to do exactly what you just said which is to have many more doors open on Capitol Hill for her than… Brooke Pinto or Robert White could claim…”

“I want to mention [Kinney Zalesne] because she’s raised money, she’s gotten endorsements, and she’s making an aggressive campaign [for DC Delegate]. (1/2)
I’m going after every vote in DC!
Go @capitals.bsky.social!
I had an amazing morning meeting people at DuPont Circle on this perfect DC day.
These broad-based endorsements prove that we are building the diverse coalition necessary to deliver for every Washingtonian.
To win the fight for DC Statehood, and to protect our local budget and laws from outside interference, we need a Delegate who can walk into any meeting in the Congress, be it the Progressive Caucus or the Blue Dog Democrats, and command respect.
I am honored to have the support of such a dynamic group of leaders who represent the full ideological breadth of our party.
US Representatives Suhas Subramanyam (VA-10), Representative Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05), and Representative Teresa Leger Fernandez (NM-03) have formally thrown their support behind me, citing me as the only candidate with the national stature and relationships to deliver for the people of DC.
On April 8, 2026, I was endorsed by a powerful trio of sitting members of Congress, signaling my unique ability to unify the Democratic Party’s diverse ideological wings.
Trump’s attacks on the federal workforce in DC aren’t just ideological, they also have a racist component to them.
As DC’s Delegate I will do everything in my power to fight to stop and reverse the needless cuts to the workforce which underpins DCs diverse middle class and serves our country.
It is my honor to have their support!
When we invest in programs like Head Start, we are investing in children, in moms, in families, and this is proven to pay dividends over their lifetimes.
As the DC Delegate, there will be no higher priority for me than making sure that we continue to properly fund programs like Head Start!
I know how to reduce crime! I’ve done it before!
Happy Easter to all who celebrate!
So many doors knocked on this gorgeous day!
