Michael Morgan+FollowCapitol Hill’s new deli brings NYC flavorAffordable, all-day breakfast sandwiches and classic East Coast heroes just landed in Capitol Hill with the opening of Jordan’s Deli. Owner Jordan Spence, who grew up in Florida with New York roots, is serving up made-to-order BECs (bacon, egg, and cheese) and meatball parms using his mom’s recipe. The vibe is bright and welcoming, with a wall honoring local veterans. Prices are designed to keep comfort food accessible, aiming to be the neighborhood’s go-to spot. Have you tried it yet, or do you have a favorite local deli that sets the bar? Let’s talk Denver sandwiches! #Food #DenverEats #CapitolHill10Share
David Frazier+FollowI'm Handling SNAP Complaints While Starving MyselfI'm a 23-year-old Congressional staffer. I am working 18-hour days. My job is to answer the flood of angry calls from constituents—mostly about their SNAP benefits being cut. I have to reassure them over and over that "the Congressman is working hard on this." The truth: I'm not getting paid either. My boss (the Congressman) still gets his salary; it's constitutionally protected. But me, his $30k-a-year staff assistant, I'm in the exact same boat as the people calling about SNAP. I don't know how I'm making rent. I am working for the very institution causing the problem, and I am a victim of it at the same time. How am I supposed to believe in this system? #CongressionalStaffer #CapitolHill #Unpaid925403Share
