Come and share your budget priorities with Councilmember Pinto on Thursday, January 13th, 2022 from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in a hearing style discussion with an opportunity to testify.
Each year, the Council of the District of Columbia, in conjunction with the Mayor and the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, passes into law the Local Budget Act and the Budget Support Act. Together, these measures provide a financial framework through which the District government – and all of its various agencies, commissions, and boards – will operate over a five-year period.
As we prepare our budget asks and continue to advocate for the needs and priorities of our community, Councilmember Pinto invites the Ward 2 community to attend her office’s second annual Ward 2 Community Budget Meeting. The format for this meeting will allow residents an opportunity to sign up testify – similar to a Council hearing – in order to allow as many neighbors as possible to be heard. Each witness will have 2 minutes to share their thoughts.
Note: registration to provide oral testimony at this evening's event has now closed. Please send written comments to
ehanson@dccouncil.us and make the subject line "Budget Priorities".
