VIEW DRAFT MEETING AGENDA HERE
Councilmember Bonds, Chairs the Committee on Executive Administration and Labor.
Discuss your thoughts on workforce training & jobs, ANC vacancies & senior services, including housing!
“Working to ensure that every District resident has a safe, sanitary, and affordable place to call home, Councilmember Bonds pushes policies that will expand tenants’ rights, increase opportunities for homeownership, preserve and increase the District’s affordable housing stock, and put an end to the displacement of longtime Washingtonians.
In addition to creating and preserving affordable housing, Councilmember Bonds has been vocal about the need to improve the District’s public-school system, expand violence prevention initiatives, and promote the idea of “good government.” Councilmember Bonds is also deeply concerned about shielding senior citizens from physical and financial abuse and neglect and ensuring that they have the resources needed to age in place.
Taking a strategic and results-oriented approach, Councilmember Bonds conducts rigorous oversights of the committees under her purview and has helped to direct hundreds of millions of dollars in funding to critical public programs and services that benefit residents of all socio-economic backgrounds.
In all, she has authored, co-authored, and helped pass into law more than 150 pieces of legislation that helps to make the District of Columbia a safer, more equitable, and more vibrant place to live and do business.”
