What can we do in DC right now? Get loud! @freedcproject recommends that every evening from 8:00pm - 8:05pm we stand outside and make some noise — whether that’s banging pots and pans or singing and playing instruments, take that time to have a short party with your neighbors. Here, LWVDC’s Anne A shows us how she makes some noise. #freedc #washingtondc #dc #DCStatehood
On March 4th, LWVDC participated in Light for our Democracy, a national solidarity event to defend voting rights, civic engagement, and the future of our nation. The evening featured powerful words — for freedom, for full rights for D.C. citizens, and for an inclusive democracy — spoken by the People on Black Lives Matter Plaza in Washington, D.C. #light4democracy

So much good energy at our Train-the-Trainer Workshop with the League of Women Voters.
Women from across DC came together to learn, connect, and talk about how we can bring ranked choice voting information back to our communities. It was empowering, community-centered, and a reminder of how important this work is.

📍Connecticut Ave NW & Kalorama Rd NW (10am - 12pm)
We’re coming together for the next #NoKings on March 28! LWVUS and LWVDC are official partners. Join us in Kalorama in NW DC, 10 AM - 12 PM. We’re uniting in morally grounded, nonviolent, and lawful action, in cities and towns across the country, to demonstrate that in America, power flows from the collective action of the people, not from authoritarian rule.
We will also be distributing D.C. Statehood buttons and placards! To meet up with Leaguers at the rally, email your interest to [email protected] and we will contact you about plans. If you want to help pass out Statehood materials, send an email to Anne Anderson at [email protected]
It is highly recommended that you utilize public transportation due to widespread anticipated road closures and extremely limited parking. The closest metro stops are the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan (Red Line) station, which is a short walk away, or the Dupont Circle (Red Line) station. You can also access the location by using the D70 bus. #nokingsdc

Thank you to the LWVDC community for attending our lunch meeting with the Full Rights for DC Citizens team yesterday. We enjoyed a fruitful discussion on our next steps for our nationwide outreach to protect Home Rule and engage our fellow Americans in support of DC Statehood. Everyone went home with at least one task to complete to get us closer to achieving our full rights. #dc #statehood #dcstatehood #washingtondc
A special thank you to @coladashop for providing the delicious food for this event.
