Replying to @dcpl
@dcpl has removed our ability to tag them on the ‘gram. As they prepare to announce and implement these hostile new anti-homeless policies, please tag them and don’t let them run from their actions.

Fun fact about tents is that they aren't meant to be used as long-term shelter and then be disassembled and moved! This means that most of the Foggy Bottom residents being evicted will need new tents so they aren't left without shelter! Check out our Amazon wishlist if you can!!!

Reminder to check out our Amazon wishlist! Items purchased from this list will be used to help get residents and their belongings safely moved out and help replace items that are lost or destroyed during the eviction process! Link in our bio!! #servicesnotsweeps
