Walter Deleon updated their profile picture.
With the negative press—including an FBI investigation into DCPS over graduation rates—“the attack ads really write themselves,” says Walter Deleon, a political consultant & President of DC Federation of College Democrats. “Not having contested elections is rather dangerous, because we deserve to have those sorts of conversation [about policy].” #DCision18
I was honored to give remarks at DC Public Charter School Board’s #TIERific Awards ceremony last week & present the student award to a Washington Latin student. #DCCharterProud
It’s clear that the DC Democratic Party needs to do better. Getting the basics right, like proper communication, transparency, & adequate infrastructure are crucial for any well-functioning organization.

"#DACA has allowed immigrants brought here as children, many not of their own volition, to come out of the shadows and live openly and proudly in the US, the only home many have ever known. These young people want to use their talents and passions to strengthen the country they love." #DefendDACA
Excited to announce that I will actively explore running for College Democrats of America President & DC Democratic Party Vice Chair:

Thanks DC Democratic Party Chairwoman Anita Bonds for introducing me at the #Resistance Picnic today. Proud to formally announce that as President of DC College Dems, I've committed to mobilizing over 2,000 students to #KeepVABlue in 2017!
Deepest condolences to the friends & family of former Councilmember Jim Graham. He was a fierce advocate for the people of #Ward1 & DC.
Councilmember Charles Allen's Bill ensures that DC women won't face a gap in coverage in the event #ACA is repealed.
