Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington

Hospitality is more than what happens inside a restaurant. It’s advocacy. It’s partnership. It’s showing up for operators when they need support the most. This testimonial reflects the collaborative spirit that continues to define RAMW and the restaurant community across the DMV. Together, we’re building an industry that is stronger, more connected, and ready for what’s next. Celebrate that spirit with us at the #2026RAMMYS on Monday, June 29. ✨ 🎟️ Tickets, tables, and sponsorships are available now at TheRAMMYS.org #DMVRestaurants #HospitalityIndustry #TogetherWeDine

Today, RAMW proudly announces its endorsements in the 2026 DC primary election for leaders who understand the critical role hospitality plays in the District’s economy, workforce, and neighborhood vitality. RAMW is endorsing: • Kenyan McDuffie for Mayor • Brooke Pinto for DC Delegate • Brian Schwalb for Attorney General • Phil Mendelson for Chairman of the Council • Doni Crawford for Independent At-Large Councilmember • Charles Allen for Ward 6 Councilmember These candidates have demonstrated a commitment to supporting independent restaurants, reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens, strengthening public safety, protecting small businesses, and fostering a more sustainable future for the hospitality industry. Hospitality remains one of DC’s strongest economic drivers, and the success of our industry is deeply connected to the city’s economic health and cultural vibrancy. Mail-in ballots are already hitting mailboxes across the District, and RAMW encourages members and the hospitality community to make their voices heard in the upcoming primary election.
