Elissa Silverman For D.C. Council
Elissa Silverman has centered her professional career on the District of Columbia, its residents, and its government. She is now seeking the at-large seat on the D.C. Council in the April 23 special election.
Her campaign is focused on integrity, accountability, and strategic investment in the District. 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.
In the words of The Washington Post's Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Colbert King, Elissa is "more issue-oriented and freer 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."
