New Orleans reimbursed Mayor Cantrell for Washington D.C. trip despite claims the city would not be charged

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – New Orleans taxpayers paid Mayor LaToya Cantrell at least $630.77 for meals and Uber rides during her March trip to Washington D.C., after her office claimed the city would not be charged for the trip.

Fox 8 obtained travel records showing Chief Administrative Officer Gilbert Montaño signed off on the reimbursement, which specified $414 in meal per diems and $216.77 for the Uber rides.

City records show Cantrell traveled to D.C. from March 9-13 for the Yale Mayor’s College Conference.

The conference ran from March 10-11.

The trip came during a now-paused ban on city-funded travel to conferences.

On March 10, Cantrell’s administration released a statement reading in part:

“..the City of New Orleans will not incur a cost for the Mayor’s participation and attendance at the Yale conference.”

At a March 19 news conference, Fox 8 if there asked Cantrell’s Communications Director Terry Davis if there will be reimbursements for the trip.

“No there will not. There will not be, we have said that Chris. We said that in a statement that from the Mayor there will not be any expense incurred,” he said.

The trip came during a legal battle with the Orleans Parish School District over a $90 million settlement funding deal.

Cantrell backed out of the deal in early 2025. Her administration argued, in part, the city could not afford the deal.

The reversal triggered a public protest and the city council passing the travel ban.

Council President JP Morrell has been an outspoken critic of Cantrell on the issue, stating in a Facebook video:

“If the mayor is going to continue to argue that we are broke, we have no money, we can’t afford to do things like pay the schools the money they’re owed, to pay for security for our children and our teachers, why is she hanging out in luxury hotel accommodations.”

Dillard University Political Analyst Dr. Robert Collins said Cantrell likely won’t face any repercussions.

“The mayor is at the end of her term, she’s a lame duck, she’s only got a few more months in office. So I think she’s taken the position, that basically at this point she’s untouchable. She can do what she wants. She doesn’t have to run for re-election,” he said.

City records show the Yale School of Management reimbursed the city for Cantrell’s flight and $696.17 for her stay at the Hotel Washington.

City records show the hotel charged her an additional $1,512.80, but it’s unclear what entity paid. The Mayor’s communications team has not responded to a request for clarification on that payment.

Fox 8 obtained records showing the conference offered Cantrell a complimentary two-night stay at the Yotel in Washington D.C.

The itinerary shows Cantrell booked the Hotel Washington at $519/night for four nights.

Cantrell posted photos of her trip and meetings with Louisiana delegation leaders on Facebook on March 12.

The city’s travel records show she received a per diem each day of the trip, including the days after the conference.

Collins said meeting with Congressional leaders could be an argument for visiting Washington D.C..

“That argument can be made. Now whether or not that trip needs to be two days, three days, five days, I think that’s the issue,” he said.

Cantrell’s press team declined to comment, stating: “The requested information is not available at this time.”

DMV-chain Compass Coffee files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

Published

January 6, 2026

By
Press Room

WASHINGTON (7News) — Compass Coffee, the coffee chain founded in D.C. in the early 2010s, filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy on Tuesday in hopes of selling parts of the chain as it faces legal challenges from a cofounder, several landlords, and vendors.
The company, which has 166 employees and operates 25 cafes across Northern Virginia, D.C., and southern Maryland, said it plans to operate all stores as normal during the Bankruptcy process.
“Over the last decade, Compass has grown to 25 cafes across the DMV. Our original 7th Street cafe has never closed – not for a single day,” a portion of a statement from co-founder Michael Haft read. “Our spaces have been the setting for first dates that turned into marriages, interviews that led to dream jobs, and everyday moments shared over millions of cups of coffee. We have supported countless community causes, shipped coffee to all 50 states and to troops deployed overseas, and helped thousands of people navigate first jobs, in-between jobs, and next chapters.
The chain founded by Haft and Harrison Suarez said customer numbers have remained low since the COVID pandemic, and struggles remained despite also operating a roastery and distribution business. Documents showed the company began putting itself up for sale in 2021, and that the bankruptcy filing was made after reaching an agreement with a possible company.

Compass leadership has requested to end the leases on several properties, including its former headquarters and roastery on Okie Street, Northeast, which was closed in Dec. 2025. The company has seen previous legal disputes with Ivy City over the roastery location.
Suarez sued Haft and his father in 2025, claiming the pair lied about Suarez having an equal share in the company. Suarez, who met Haft in college and both served as Marines, said he was cut from the company in 2021.
Documents show the company has 100-200 creditors. EagleBank, the Small Business Administration, Square, and inKind have filed statements claiming a total of $1.7 million in liens on Compass Coffee.
Compass also owes roughly $5.2 million to over insider and outside investors on unsecured convertible notes, while about 100 others have claims totaling $4.8 million. Most of the $4.8 million comes from past due rent, unpaid purchase amounts for store acquisitions, and unpaid accounts to suppliers and other vendors, according to a statement filed by Haft.
Filing for Chapter 11 could allow Compass to pay back its lenders, both secured and unsecured, according to Haft in a legal filing.

Press Room

Numerous roads in D.C. will be closed to traffic Monday evening for a fireworks show celebrating America’s 25th birthday.
Projectors have lit up all four sides of the Washington Monument nightly since 7 p.m. Wednesday for the “Illumination of America: Washington Monument Lighting.” The fireworks that lit up the National Mall on New Year’s Eve are making a return Monday night, which is the last night of the display.
The grand finale of the display comes with some parking restrictions and street closures.

D.C. police said Constitution Avenue from 14th Street to 17th Street NW will be an Emergency No Parking zone from roughly 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The following streets will be closed to traffic from approximately 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.:

Westbound 395 – no traffic toward Maine Avenue/Independence Avenue, SW

Independence Avenue from 15th Street to 23rd Street, SW

Constitution Avenue from 7th Street to 12th Street, NW (westbound traffic will be restricted)

Constitution Avenue from 12th Street to 23rd Street, NW

Virginia Avenue from 20th Street to 18th Street, NW

19th Street from E Street to Constitution Avenue, NW

17th Street from Independence Avenue, SW to New York Avenue, NW

15th Street from Independence Avenue, SW to Pennsylvania Avenue, NW

14th Street from Independence Avenue, SW to Pennsylvania Avenue, NW

Madison Drive from 7th Street to 14th Street, NW

Police said all street closures and listed times are subject to change.

“Freedom 250 is lighting up the Washington Monument as the world’s tallest birthday candle to kick off the nation’s 250th birthday year,” Keith Krach, CEO of Freedom 250, said ahead of the New Year’s Eve event.
Freedom 250 is the presidentially appointed committee planning the year-long celebration of the United States’ 250th birthday. It was created by the second Trump administration as part of the Department of the Interior, and is a separate organization from America250, which was created by Congress.
The event will “be looking at America’s past, present and what’s to come over the next 250 years,” Krach said.
“Primarily it will focus on the four pillars of Freedom 250, which is innovation; it’s also community and faith; it’s also on the beauty of our country as well,” Krach said. “And, you know, the other thing that’s great about that is that it’ll be something that will kind of be an animation and I think everybody’s going to enjoy it. So from adults to kids and everything.”

The event is free to the public, can be viewed from anywhere on the National Mall, and does not require tickets.
