Thanks to Commissioner Farnan for reporting this morning:
“Good morning from DCA! Dunkin’ Donuts line longer than TSA. If you have pre-check, you’re golden. If you don’t, you’re still looking at max 30 min security line. Safe travels!!!”
Adam Nathaniel Peck writes earlier this morning: “Wasting absolutely no time, a woman bursts into Compass Coffee unmasked, and is insistent that the mask mandate is lifted as of today (it isn’t) when gently asked to put one on (she doesn’t). It’s been 18 months people, the least you can do is wait 2 more days sheesh.”

From the Mayor’s Office:
“Today, as she kicked off DMV Black Restaurant Week, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced nearly $9 million in grants through the Food Access Fund to provide funding to food businesses to open new locations in Wards 7 and 8.

“We have an incredible amount of entrepreneurial talent and creativity in DC, especially in our restaurant and foodservice industries – it’s just not equally distributed or equally funded. The Food Access Grants are going to change that,” said Mayor Bowser. “With this $58 million fund, we can bring DC favorites like HalfSmoke that currently operate in some of our most popular corridors on the west side of the city and support them in opening new locations in Wards 7 and 8. We can also support popular spots that are already in Wards 7 and 8, like MLK Deli, and make sure they have the resources necessary to expand and reach more Washingtonians. We already know that we have residents in every part of our city who are eager to support local businesses; the Food Access Grants are not only delivering more food options to Wards 7 and 8, they’re delivering new opportunities to stay local and shop local.”
