No DC Taxes for Baseball
A people's hearing on public financing of Major League Baseball in DC will be held on Monday, June 28, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library (901 G St. NW, Room A-5). Come out to hear experts discuss how residents lose when their taxes are used to create sports arenas for billionaire team owners, share your views on where $400 million should be spent, and tell the City Council to vote against this misuse of DC taxes! This event is sponsored by EmpowerDC. For more information, call 202/234-9119.
