GGW endorsed JD as their #1 choice for Arlington County Board
Mission to inform, engage, and influence the public and policy makers to advance racial, economic, and environmental justice in land use, transportation, and housing throughout Greater Washington
“Spain would lend greater weight to community engagement that meets people where they’re at, like door-knocking, instead of more traditional public hearings, in which well-off, white residents who own homes are typically over-represented. In an increasingly diverse metropolitan area where most large cities and counties are now majority people of color, Arlington stands out as one of the few majority-white jurisdictions, and there are currently no non-white County Board members. Arlingtonians of color need representation too, and while that’s far from the only reason to support JD Spain, it’s a meaningful one.”
