WARD 1 HIGHLIGHTED ALLIES

The following candidates for Advisory Neighborhood Commissions in Ward 1 have identified themselves as allies of the LGBTQ+ community.

Candidates from other wards will be highlighted soon!

Candidate for ANC 1B SMD 12

SABEL HARRIS (SHE/HER)

The only way our community remains vibrant and great is if it's diverse, inclusive, and equitable for all. It's my job as an ally to make sure everyone is in the room and represented, which is why I'm proud to be an ally for the LGBTQ+ community and I'm excited to support the ANC Rainbow Caucus.

I’ve been an official Washingtonian for nearly 8 years, and have lived in 1B12 for over half of that time. I’m a Vietnamese American, originally from Virginia Beach, VA, where most of my family lives today.

I live with my fiancé, Paul, and our dog Essie. You can find me around DC walking Essie, stopping for coffee, or shopping at the 14th St Farmers’ Market.

WARD 3 HIGHLIGHTED ALLIES

The following candidates for Advisory Neighborhood Commissions in Ward 3 have identified themselves as allies of the LGBTQ+ community.

Candidates from other wards will be highlighted soon!

Candidate for ANC 3C SMD 05

SAULEH A. SIDDIQUI (HE/HIM)

The goal of my campaign is to build a more inclusive Cleveland Park for everyone who lives here. As a professor at a university, I know that LGBTQ+ identified students likely make up 3 to 10 percent of the students I interact with, and that I may not be aware of which my students identify as LGBTQ+ and which are in the process of questioning their sexual or gender identity. LGBTQ+ students, and individuals, have a justified fear of consequences if they reveal their identity to others, which leads to a potential for maintaining invisibility. This invisibility often comes at the price of isolating LGBTQ+ identified people from a source of support, in this case, their democratically elected representatives. In this uncertain environment, LGBTQ+ individuals have difficulty identifying allies. Since I am fighting for an inclusive community, I want to publicly and fully identify as a member of the ANC Rainbow Caucus and advocate for the issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community. I want my voters and constituents to know that I am thinking about them and fighting for them all the time.
