Come meet Elissa Silverman at Cafe Puro Monday from 10-11:30am!

Come meet At-Large DC Council Candidate Elissa Silverman over pastries and coffee at Cafe Puro this Monday at 10am.  

Election day is next Tuesday, and Elissa is choosing to invest her time the day before in Georgetown.  I am a 12-year Georgetown resident and am proud to be serving as treasurer for Elissa's campaign and host of this Meet and Greet.

What: Meet and Greet for DC Council Candidate Elissa Silverman 

Where: Cafe Puro, 1529 Wisconsin Avenue 

When: Monday, April 22, from 10-11:00am

Why am I supporting Elissa?  What we desperately need at the DC Council right now is an independent voice to clean up DC government and improve the services our taxes pay for.  Elissa is the only major candidate who is independent of party machines and corporate influence - in fact, with your help Elissa will be the first DC Councilmember who ran without accepting corporate contributions.

Elissa has centered her professional career on the District of Columbia, its residents, and its government.  As a budget analyst and former reporter for both The Washington Post and the Washington City Paper, Elissa knows how to unpack complicated issues and ask the tough questions.  That's why her campaign is focused on integrity, accountability, and strategic investment in the District.  

In the words of The Washington Post's Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Colbert King, Elissa is "more issue-oriented and free from partisan politics" and "has a deeper understanding of the District's challenges and issues, especially the budget, than does the rest of the field."
