Statement from Stu K - AGAINST - regarding Resolution ER8: Endorse Oye Owolewa
I’m against this endorsement. I like Dr. Oye Owolewa (and hope that he stays involved in the chapter), but I don’t think we should be endorsing and committing resources in a Shadow Rep race that is by and large ceremonial. We should be laser focused on moving the DC Council instead, and it’d be great if Oye is involved in that struggle.
