The new ANC 3F06
Several ANC single member districts in DC have no candidate on the 2022 ballot. Most have one. ANC 3F06 is the rare SMD that has three candidates running for the seat: Rona Walters, Courtney Carlson, and Bridget Schwartz, whose statement is below.
We are publishing their statements as part of our 2022 “Meet the Candidates” series. We started yesterday with 3F05 candidates James Tandaric and Andrew Koval.
The ANC 3F redistricting makes 3F06 one of the northernmost single member districts in ANC 3F. Places of note include the rehabilitated Linnean and Broad Branch streams, Forest Hills of DC and Sunrise Senior Living, Engine 31, and the Connecticut Avenue commercial district between Fessenden Street and Nebraska Avenue. The diverse housing stock includes detached single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, and multi-family apartment buildings and condos.
Here is Bridget Schwartz’s statement:

Bridget Schwartz
After focusing much of my time growing as a professional and volunteering for leadership positions in the past decade, I am honored to be considered for ANC for 3F06 which will allow me to give back to the community I love.
I will bring to the position my values of creating an inclusive environment where all are welcomed and valued and have equal access and opportunity to resources. I also believe that to be an effective community leader, I will need to put my personal feelings aside and actively work to understand and promote residents’ needs. Further, as an ANC member, I will engage with residents and organizations within the community as well as relevant DC and federal government departments to create positive change and advocate for projects that will promote safety and accessibility.
Read more about the issues facing our community and my positions on these issues on my website, bridgetanc3f06.org, and please use the “Feedback and Support” form to provide your thoughts and concerns. I look forward to hearing from you.
