Great time at Community Paint Day in Adams Morgan yesterday. Public art brings people together and reminds us that every community deserves spaces that reflect its people. As your next DC Council At-Large Member, I’ll keep supporting the artists and community organizations that make DC stronger.

Set your alarm. ☀️ I’ll be back on Sunrise on The Hill tomorrow at 7:40 AM on DC News Now. See you in the morning.

This Saturday I am marching in the Palisades 4th of July parade, and I hope you can join me. I will be at 4700 Whitehaven Pkwy NW at 10AM representing for all of DC. Link⬇️ actionnetwork.org/events/palis... #TeamOye #DCCouncil #Palisades4thofJuly

Thank you WUSA9 for highlighting our Democratic primary victory. As DC’s next At-Large Councilmember, I’m ready to keep delivering results and earning your trust as we head toward November.

What do wins from @aparnafordc.bsky.social in Ward 1 and @repoyedc.bsky.social for At-Large mean for D.C.? Our reporter @samdelgado.bsky.social joined @nbcwashington.com to discuss the Democratic primary election results and break down the clear message voters sent at the ballot box.

Just wanted to say thank you. To everyone who supported this campaign, volunteered, donated, voted, and believed in our vision for DC, I’m grateful. This is your victory too. Now, let’s keep building toward November.

History! @repoyedc.bsky.social is officially the Democratic nominee for at-large council. A win in November would make him the first sitting at-large councilmember to live in Ward 8. #ward8votes #ward8 #DCision2026

WE DID IT. With 51% of the vote, we’ve secured the Democratic nomination for DC Council At-Large. Thank you to every voter, volunteer, supporter, and neighbor who believed in this campaign. This victory belongs to all of us. Onward to November.

I stand corrected - RCV results have now been posted! Congrats to @repoyedc.bsky.social & @aparnafordc.bsky.social, the winners of the At-Large CM and Ward 1 CM Democratic primaries:

The unofficial final RCV results are in, and @aparnafordc.bsky.social and @repoyedc.bsky.social are the winners of the Ward 1 and At-Large Council primaries #dcpolitics #freedc

Happy Father’s Day to my dad, whose love, guidance, and example have shaped who I am today. I’m grateful for the lessons, sacrifices, and values he passed on to me. Wishing a Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers and father figures making a difference every day.

Yesterday, I joined IUPAT, IBEW, Plumbers Local 5, and AFL-CIO members on the National Mall to stand up for DC workers. Every worker deserves fair wages, safe working conditions, and access to paid family leave. I’m committed to being that voice on the Council. #UnionStrong #DCWorkers

Thanks to Engine Company 21 in Adams Morgan, the Alley Rats. Incredible getting to watch your training exercise up close today. The speed, calm, teamwork, and trust it takes to do that job is something else. I’m also proud to be endorsed by the DC Fire Fighters Union, IAFF Local 36. 🚒

Momentum building for @repoyedc.bsky.social!

This work has never been about one person, it’s about all of us. Showing up. Speaking out. Staying consistent. That’s how change happens. This is the DC I’m fighting for!

This past Saturday: brought the flavor AND the solutions. You can judge the plate, but I’m focused on delivering results for DC. Good food. Real conversations. Better policy.

On March 14th, I protested the $524 million plan to build the ICE HQ in Southeast DC with dozens residents and activists. Follow our campaign to join the Fight against ICE. #StopICE #StopTrump #DCision26

Awesome remarks from @repoyedc.bsky.social at #StandUpforScience repping science, health, and DC’s own fight for democracy with @freedcproject.bsky.social “Fight for each other, fight together, … let’s fight for the America we all deserve and an America that has DC as its 51st state” #SUFS #FreeDC

Have you checked out our conversation w/ @repoyedc.bsky.social on the @ghpoliticspodcast.bsky.social yet? A #pharmacist, Dr. Owolewa serves as the #ShadowRepresentative to #Congress for the nation's #capital. He talks #publichealth & D.C. #statehood as a candidate for D.C. Council lnkd.in/gJmasNNy

Congress, not the Executive Branch alone has the authority to declare war. The recent U.S.strikes on Iran raise serious concerns about the lack of congressional authorization. D.C. residents are denied control over our own tax dollars,yet federal funds move quickly toward military escalation abroad.

Just received my first #DCision26 mailer, this one’s from @repoyedc.bsky.social:

Tuesday night at Ben’s Chili Bowl was a whole vibe. Thank you to everyone who showed up, brought a friend, grabbed a veggie dog, and made this midway celebration unforgettable. We’re building something special in this city, and we’re just getting started. Let’s keep going.

It's not everyday that you get to talk with one of America's most promising new political voices. Listen to my chat with @repoyedc.bsky.social as he shares his experience as the son of immigrants, a pharmacist at a time when research funding for new drugs been slashed & as candidate for DC Council

Reverend Jesse Jackson’s life reminds us that faith and justice must walk together. Grateful to @DCNewsNo for sharing my reflection on a leader who believed deeply in people and never stopped pushing this country forward.
