Thanks to all who passed on info about the HandsOffDC Rally:

“On Monday, February 13, at 5pm I hope you’ll be able to join the Hands Off DC rally & protest outside the House Rayburn Office Building on the south side of the building (Lower Park D – Spirit of Justice). This rally & protest will take place a half hour before the House Oversight Committee will mark-up legislation aimed at overturning the District’s Death with Dignity Law. We need a large turnout to show Congress and the nation that we will not sit idly by whenever there is a threat to democracy in the District of Columbia. Please bring yourselves, your family, your friends, and your neighbors. Share this widely!!!

The hearing is set to take place at 5:30pm in Room 2154 of the Rayburn Building and is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

Today at 5 PM – 6 PM

Spirit of Justice Park

Tell Representative Chaffetz and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to keep their #HandsOffDC as they vote to override the will of District residents.

We’ll gather at 5 p.m. at Lower D Park [Spirit of Justice Park on Google Maps] near South Capitol Street and C Street, SW, and then continue on to the #HandsOffDC organizing meeting at the Atlas Performing Arts Center at 1333 H Street NE at 6:30 p.m.”

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
