Roanoke City Councilman Phazhon Nash delivered a MAJOR win for his community ‼️👏🏻
Thanks to his work, a new conservation-focused plan advanced that helps protect one of the last major green spaces in Northwest Roanoke while allowing thoughtful, low-impact development. 🌱 🧵
Talked with WSLS about the challenges young people are facing under this admin.
We must fight for an America where human rights are respected, our elected leaders are working for us, and an economy where we aren’t living paycheck to paycheck.

ICE is not America. We are a nation built on basic principles set forth in our Constitution, and in 2026, we are seeing the Bill of Rights violated by those meant to protect us.
We, as State Lawmakers, work often with our local law enforcement, and more often than not, have great relationships with those serving our localities. The actions of this administration are breaking down trust between all law enforcement and our citizens.
We have a Federal system ripping families apart and taking neighbors and friends from our communities. As a Commonwealth, we must come together to protect the dignity and rights of our citizens.
We all want safe communities - this is not a partisan view. It is up to all of us, Democrats & Republicans, to speak out when things are wrong. I requested that we lay HB1459 on the table to protect Virginians from the tyranny of the Trump Administration.
As Donald Trump attacks our democracy, this moment requires leaders who will fight for Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and an end to the genocide in Gaza. I am preparing paperwork for an exploratory committee to run for Congress.
As a Palestinian-American who has represented Appalachia for over a decade, I have spent my career standing up to special interests who have rigged the system against Virginia’s working families. Our region deserves a fighter who will never back down in the face of injustice at home and abroad, and will tackle the affordability crisis that we all face. I look forward to exploring the best path to serve our community as the stakes rise higher by the day.
My Delegate shows up to as many community events as he can, and is a strong voice for our region and progressive values. Delegate Sam Rasouls leads Roanoke with love and respect, and anyone calling for him to have his chairmanship taken away is stripping my voice from the HoD.
In memory of our late member, Eric Russ, we have launched the Young at Heart fundraiser. Until July 14th, donations will go to the CMN, which had an impact on Eric’s life and continues to support young people facing serious medical challenges.

Virginia's 11th Congressional District Dems are charging $7,000 for someone to file as a candidate for the Primary.
How do you say we are the party of the wealthy elite without saying it?

In Virginia, we will not allow discrimination to go unchecked, and we will continue to fight for policies that support & uplift the LGBTQIA+ community. Together, we will ensure that all people have the freedom to live as their true selves.
Like so many Virginians, I've had to work 2-3 jobs to get by. I know what it feels like to worry about bills, to feel like our government has forgotten you. We don’t just need good new policies, we need new leaders. Leaders who show up, who see you, and who fight for you.
