Earlier this evening, via Twitter, Mayor-Elect Muriel Bowser made a series of comments regarding the land swap portion of the Stadium Act. See the Mayor's Tweets as well as a response from D.C. United Managing General Partner Jason Levien, below.

"We are encouraged by the Mayor-Elect's comments tonight and look forward to seeing her proposal. We are eager to work with her, the other members of the Council and the Mayor to get the stadium approved before the end of the year." Jason Levien

I support building a new soccer stadium in DC. It's an investment that will create jobs, add to the cultural vitality of the District. — MurielBowser (@MurielBowser) November 18, 2014
