#Capitol Hill

Latina, franchise owner, and now—lobbyist 💼 👩🏼‍💼 @tiktok and the International Franchise Association brought me out to Washington D.C. to meet with senators and representatives on Capitol Hill. As a Latina content creator and franchise owner, I was able to share my story and how certain laws impact small businesses, franchise owners, and the communities we serve. Grateful to have had a seat at the table and to represent voices like mine in these conversation 🥹 🙏🏽We’re just getting started! #latinabusinessowner #franchiseowner #capitolhill

No one puts this in the job description. Working on Capitol Hill sounds polished from the outside. 🏛️ But behind the scenes? You’re sprinting from the top of the Hill to the bottom with 8 minutes to make it to your Congressman meeting, coffee in hand, trying not to sweat through your blazer. The cardio alone should count as a work benefit. 😅 If you’ve survived the Capitol Hill meeting marathon, this one’s for you. Tag or send this to someone who gets it. • • • #capitolhill #washingtondc #governmentrelations #capitolhilldc #behindthescenes

One of the coolest experiences of my life. 🇺🇸 While my husband was in DC for NADA dealer school, I got to tag along for a private tour of the United States Capitol and let me tell you… the videos don’t even come close to doing it justice! Standing in the same rooms where laws were debated, people were attacked and shot at for making laws(wild stories), and history literally shifted gave me chills. The architecture alone is insane, but the stories behind it? Even better. Fun fact: you cannot just walk into the Capitol. Not even the President can stroll in unannounced. Members must be in session or you have to be invited. Access is everything in that building. The tunnels we were able to walk that channel all through underground DC was WILD. The conspiracy theorist in me was losing it lol And here’s my favorite story… John Quincy Adams, who later became President but served in Congress for years after, used to sit at his desk appearing to nap during Democratic caucus meetings. People thought he was asleep. He wasn’t. The acoustics in the chamber were so precise that he could hear whispers from across the room. He would quietly gather information while everyone underestimated him. Moral of the story? Never assume someone isn’t paying attention. 👏🏽 History in that building is not just in the statues and paintings. It’s in the strategy. Mostly playing chess not checkers. If you love politics, architecture, power plays, or just standing where giants once stood… you have to find a way to experience this. #dc #dctour #capitolhilldc
