Council Of The District Of Columbia

Check out our latest #HearingTheCouncil interview with Councilmember Elissa Silverman! We discuss at length her work assisting District residents with Unemployment Insurance since COVID began, including training and serving as a Department of Employment Services call center volunteer staffer. We talk about the intricacies of the application process and the different UI sub-funds. Plus, to lighten things up a bit, we somehow find time for a tour of my DC-themed wallhangings, and the Councilmember seeks input on her COVID hair strategy.
