Nate Bennett Fleming was born and raised in Ward 7 in a low-income apartment complex on Minnesota Avenue. He now lives in the Deanwood community of Ward 7 with his wife and two children.


Nate was raised by a courageous single mother who enrolled him in the revered Nannie Helen Burroughs school in Ward 7, which helped to prepare him to later earn degrees from Morehouse College, Harvard University, and the University of California, Berkeley School of Law.

Nate studied government and became an attorney in order to be able to return to the community in which he was raised and give back. Nate has dedicated his life to public service and is genuinely committed to listening to residents of Ward 7 and fighting for Ward 7 priorities on the DC Council.


His experience working as a Legislative Director on the the DC Council provides him with key knowledge that will help him advance policy objectives as Councilmember. Likewise, his experience of being elected to serve as DC’s Shadow U.S. Representative to Congress sets Nate apart from the competition.
