Robert --

Last week, our Ward 8 Strong movement gained more momentum because of the efforts of supporters like you. 

On Monday, the Washington, D.C. chapter of the Sierra Club endorsed Eugene citing his efforts to stop a private prison and trash transfer station on park land, and because of his long-term advocacy for the people of Ward 8. See our press release here.

This was followed by Tuesday's fundraising deadline where we announced having raised over $31,100 for the quarter bringing our total amount raised to $74,131. As a result, The Washington Post noted the strength of our campaign and acknowledged Eugene as one of the top two candidates running for the Ward 8 Council seat. 

On Thursday, Eugene launched his vision for economic development in the Ward at the Anacostia Metro Station which will focus on first, creating a land redevelopment agency and second, encouraging transit oriented development throughout the ward.

Then, two news stories, one in the Afro and the other in East of the River, published this week highlighted Eugene’s continued commitment to working to make Ward 8 strong.

We’re having tremendous success in our conversations with likely voters on the phones and at the doors. We continue to exceed our weekly goals for identifying Kinlow supporters throughtout the Ward, our signage is out, and each day we add more completed volunteer shifts to our effort. 

We thank you for being a part of this movement and need your continued support to make Ward 8 strong and to fight for the issues important to our residents, such as creating jobs, supporting economic development, and ensuring public safety.

Thanks,

Lenox Ramsey Jr
Campaign Manager
