Let’s start off this edition of The Collins Council Report with a warm welcome back to all council members, staffers, lobbyists, activists and the like. The council also made some movement on the RENTAL Act and the Robert F. Kennedy Campus Redevelopment Act. Council members, along with their constituents, had to also weather the storm of an intrusive Trump administration and federal agencies. The legislation passed on an 11-2 vote, with D.C. Council members Robert White (D-At large) and Brianne Nadeau (D-Ward 1) voting in opposition. In his opening remarks before an audience of community members, White questioned Republicans’ sincerity about curbing crime in the District.
