The Committee extends our heartfelt thanks to all supporters, volunteers, and donors who helped the Recall Charles Allen campaign push our local leaders to focus on public safety issues in Ward 6 and our city.
Though we fell short in our signature drive, our efforts shifted the Council’s conversation, resulting in a revised DC crime bill, increased police presence, and renewed attention to public safety. We also challenged the sense of invincibility around Council elections, particularly Charles Allen’s, who remains affronted that Ward 6 citizens dared to oppose the lenient crime policies he supported. What Allen dismisses as a “waste of time,” we see as democracy in action.
Despite significant challenges, including harassment from Allen’s supporters and the difficulties of accessing apartment residents post-redistricting, we persevered. We’re filing a complaint with the Board of Elections, requesting that our initiative be placed on the ballot due to the absence of a Council-mandated electronic signature-gathering app.
More importantly, we’ve built a strong database of thousands of committed citizens ready to ensure public safety remains a priority for all elected officials. We’re here to support other groups concerned with public safety and the recall process.
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT. We look forward to continuing our work to ensure safe neighborhoods for all.

🚨 Last Week to Make a Difference! Act Now! 🚨
As the summer of violence continues with 4 people shot, 2 killed, and 5 others injured in on Saturday alone, it’s time to act. We’ve collected over 5,000 signatures, but we need 6,200 to force a recall vote.
Despite challenges like stonewalling from the Board of Elections, misinformation from disgraced former Councilman Tommy Wells, harassment and stalking from Charles Allen supporters, vandalism and theft of our campaign signs and materials, and vicious online attacks on social media, we are undeterred. We need your help to overcome these obstacles!
Here’s how you can help:
• Rally friends and family to sign the petition!
• Turn in your petitions!
• Help us put up signs in your neighborhood!
Remember: Charles Allen’s lenient policies and efforts to defund the police have FAILED us. More criminals on the street and fewer police on the beat have brought us to this situation.
📢 Ward 6 residents, if you haven’t signed, now is the time! Deadline: August 12, 2024
Let’s send a LOUD and CLEAR message. We can do this together!

Despite a 32% drop in reported violent crimes, is still on track for the 2nd most violent year in 26 years. This is due to Charles Allen’s failed policies as Chairman of the Judiciary and Public Safety Committee from 2017-2022. We deserve livable and walkable communities.

A kid was stabbed in the food court at Union Station, yet 3 hours later, Charles Allen’s biggest concern is bagels (see screenshots). Seriously?? Can’t grab a bagel with crime tape everywhere. Tone deaf much? 🤯

Despite a slight improvement from the deadliest year in over 2 decades, violent crime in DC remains rampant. Charles Allen’s failed policies have fueled record-high levels of homicides and carjackings, and we’ve reached a breaking point.
