Great to join the community for this year's Clifton Caboose Twilight Run!

Happy #PrideMonth, Virginia!

This year, we have the opportunity to protect marriage equality and ensure fairness and dignity for all Virginians. #VoteYes

[Senator Schuyler VanValkenburg @ScVanValkenburg]

🇺🇸America is the greatest idea the world has ever seen! 🇺🇸

“They meant to set up a standard maxim for free society…constantly spreading and deepening its influence, and augmenting the happiness and value of life to all people of all colors everywhere.” - Abraham Lincoln

Had a great time yesterday joining Supervisor @RachnaHeizer at Braddock Bark!

Great to see so many families and local organizations working together to support our community and help dogs get adopted. #DogsForDan

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our meet and greet with Mary Baylor and @MomsDemand.

I appreciated the thoughtful questions about gun violence prevention and public safety. Virginians want gun safety laws that keep our communities safe, and I’m committed to that fight.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Virginia taxpayers should not be subsidizing organizations that celebrate traitors who waged war to preserve slavery.

That’s why I’m proud to have chief co-patroned legislation ending state tax breaks for Confederate organizations like the United Daughters of the Confederacy.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Democrats know how to organize, fight, and deliver.

Because of the work we put in across Virginia, we expanded our House majority, passed an assault weapons ban, and pushed back against Trump and MAGA extremism.

We’ve got more work ahead - and we’re ready for it.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Great joining the Springfield Democrats BBQ and talking about the road ahead for Virginia.

As Trump and MAGA Republicans continue attacking our rights and our democracy, it’s more important than ever that we organize, stay engaged, and keep moving Virginia forward.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Great sharing an update on the constitutional amendments before Virginians this November.

From protecting reproductive freedom and marriage equality to restoring voting rights, I encourage every Virginian to vote YES to ensure we lead in protecting our rights and our democracy.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Great joining my colleagues for a Regional Town Hall and hearing directly from community members about the issues that matter most to them.

These conversations are an important part of the work, and I’m grateful to everyone who took the time to come out and engage. Thank you.

I was a cadet when Professor Tim Bakken was teaching. Two decades later, when I returned as an instructor, he was still there. I’ve heard from colleagues about censorship and banned books at West Point. Glad courts intervened and I applaud his courage.

Wishing a joyful and peaceful Eid al-Adha to everyone celebrating in Virginia and around the world.

May this holiday be filled with reflection, community, generosity, and time with loved ones. Eid Mubarak.

Today is Memorial Day - a time to honor those who served, sacrificed, and gave their lives in defense of our country and our freedoms.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Protecting Virginia families and keeping communities safe. I'll always fight for that.

[Del. Dan Helmer @DelDanHelmer]

Really enjoyed spending time with Mayor Letty Hardi and hearing more about the work happening in Falls Church.

From investing in schools to growing small businesses and expanding housing, Falls Church is showing how local government can deliver real results for communities.

[Del. Dan Helmer @DelDanHelmer]

Great touring Falls Church and Eden Center with Mayor Letty Hardi and hearing about the innovative ways she’s been expanding housing and business in the community.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

I’ve spent my life fighting extremists - first as a soldier, now as a legislator - and I’m not stopping now. As Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans continue to threaten our democracy, freedoms, and future, I’ll keep fighting to protect them.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

At a time when our democracy is under constant attack by Trump and his cronies, my fellow Virginia Democrats and I remain focused on a simple principle: the will of the people must be respected.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

No matter your religion, you should be safe in America. The hate crime targeting Muslim worshipers in San Diego is abhorrent and my heart goes out to the families of those lost and the entire Muslim community.

[Dan Helmer @HelmerVA]

Grateful to join NoVA Labor’s “Tribute to Labor” Dinner and celebrate the strength of Northern Virginia’s labor movement.

I’m honored to stand with the men and women who keep our communities running every day, and proud to be in this fight together.
