Today, I introduced the Candis King Hope for Sickle Cell Families Act — named in honor of a young sickle cell warrior from Virginia who we lost far too soon.
This bill would restore a program that helped researchers and policymakers improve care and treatment options for those living with sickle cell disease.
Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.
Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.
Now Virginia has a chance to help level the playing field. If you live in the Commonwealth, early voting begins March 6, and Election Day is on April 21. Vote YES.

1. Wide variety of bills is introduced by big tent of Dems
2. GOP creates hysteria
3. Lazy media amplifies hysteria
4. Legislative process plays out; most big tents bills die

House Public Safety sub reports out great @JoshuaCole bill to ensure educational and professional skills re-entry programs are more available to incarcerated folks, sooner after arriving at a facility.
This is a VA gubernatorial tradition since the beginning of the Commonwealth. At the moment of the Governor-elect takes the oath of office the former Governer leaves the inauguration ceremony to symbolize there can only be one duly elected sitting Governor at the Capitol. It was respect and tradition.
Merry Christmas Y'all!!! One night in Bethlehem, the Light of the world broke through the darkness and that same fire now lives in us.
We carry the Light to ignite love, justice, healing, and hope. Christ is born!
Congratulations to Margaret Franklin, our Democratic nominee for HD-23!
Mark your calendars for the election on January 13th. Let’s show up, win this seat, protect our majority, and keep delivering for Virginians.
I’m old enough to remember in a special session 4yrs ago… these same folks said oversight boards weren’t necessary because elections would hold folks accountable….
On behalf of millions of Virginians, we have not moved on and will not be moving on.
Jay Jones is a deeply disturbed and violent individual. He is a threat to public safety in our Commonwealth, and we will never, ever let Virginians forget what he said about them.
Grateful to witness @PastorMichelleT consecrated as Bishop! Her faith and dedication shine brightly as she embarks on this new chapter of spiritual leadership. Congratulations, Bishop Thomas!
