“The Washington Lawyers’ Committee is one of our best partners. The first time they came over, they listened to us. They understand that knowledge exists in lots of different places and didn’t act like lawyers know more than the citizens. With their help, we’re going to keep hundreds and thousands of people in this city.”
Dominic Moulden, ONE DC
