DC has an abundance of empty places that can easily be converted into living spaces. If you increase the supply of housing, it will reduce demand, making housing more affordable. I will advocate for new development and less bureaucracy ASAP. DC will attract private investors to build, build, build!

No Taxation Without Representation. DC does not have a vote in Congress and, therefore, residents should not pay federal income taxes. Other districts and territories (such as Puerto Rico, Guam, and the US Virgin Islands) do not pay federal income taxes, and DC should not either.

As a resident and homeowner in DC, I noticed a stark contrast in my community before and after the presence. Many DC residents, including myself, feel safer now and would continue to welcome federal law enforcement for a safer DC.
