To My Hunter Mill District Neighbors:

See below for our most recent data on COVID-19 cases. As we are finishing our fourth day in Phase 2, the data locally and regionally continue to improve. But please let’s all use common sense this summer – the virus is still very much among us!

On another topic – today marks a major milestone in the history of U.S. human rights law. Thank you U.S. Supreme Court for ruling that federal anti-discrimination laws protect gay and transgender employees - we are ALL created equal under our U.S. Constitution. Read the U.S. Supreme Court Ruling .
 
I also want to bring to your attention that the Board of Supervisors will be having a timely and critical discussion with our Fairfax County Police Department tomorrow, June 16 during the Public Safety Committee Meeting at 1:30 p.m. Police Chief Edwin Roessler and senior members of his staff will present an update on the Police Department's use of force policies and training, and the implementation of body worn cameras. In addition, the Chief and the county's Chief Equity Officer Karla Bruce will walk through the presentation “An Equity Perspective to Frame the Path Forward – Police Department and Community Engagement, Police Legitimacy, and Trust.” The presentations and other materials can be found here . I encourage you to watch the Channel 16 live stream of the meeting here ; l ive audio of the meeting can be accessed by dialing 703-324-5300. I will also include the link to the meeting video in my next newsletter on Wednesday, June 17.
 
The full schedule of committee meetings tomorrow, which can also be viewed on live stream :

Respectfully,
Walter
