As VA House Dems Leader @DonScott757 says, it's *very* hard to be "this bad, this fast," but Youngkin has managed to accomplish that feat. https://t.co/HWtGUIOHq4

Do you have Election night plans? If not, we'd love to have you at Cooper's Tavern in New Kent! Save the date and VOTE VOTE VOTE!

[Nick Knudsen 🇺🇸 @NickKnudsenUS]

Republicans don’t vote for you. So why would you vote for them???

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

US GDP is at 2.6% growth (higher than average).

Unemployment is 3.5%, a 50-YEAR low.

Inflation is high GLOBALLY, much higher elsewhere -- and falling in the US.

If anyone in the media is telling you the sky is falling, they're lying to you, so you keep watching and clicking.

One of my opponent's biggest donors -- and a consistent Chesapeake Bay polluter -- is the company Omega Protein. My opponent purports to be a champion of the Bay, but he doesn't seem to mind their overfishing to avoid his campaign being underfunded...{https://t.co/8UtwpFRY2K}

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

NEVER FORGET: While oil companies have been enjoying record profits at the expense of consumers, Republicans voted against a law to ban price gouging.

Pass it on.

We are just 2 WEEKS away from the most important election of our lifetime.

We must keep our democratic and Democratic majority and we must Flip the First.

Help me to finish these last 2 weeks strong.

Let's start GOTV off right!!!

[The White House 46 Archived @WhiteHouse46]

Republicans in Congress want to cut taxes for the wealthy, and cut Social Security and Medicare for seniors.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

Oil price per barrel are currently $86, while gas prices are close to $4 a gallon. In 2010, oil was slightly over $85 a barrel, while gas was under $3.

While price per barrel remains the same, Oil companies have jacked up prices over 30%

It’s not Biden, it’s the Oil companies.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Corporate profits only accounted for roughly 11% of price growth from 1979 to 2019.

Today, record corporate profits account for 53.9% of price increases.

Folks, corporate greed is driving inflation, not workers asking for better wages.

If my opponent supports access to contraception, why did he vote against it? {https://t.co/k9rzCuPBMX}

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

Republicans HATE hearing this, but
some of the HIGHEST murder rates are in GOP-led cities. Jacksonville (19.78 per 100,000), Tulsa (19.64), Fresno (14.09), Bakersfield (11.91), OK City (11.16) and Lexington (10.61) all have MUCH HIGHER murder rates than NYC (5.94) and LA (6.74).

[Social Security Works ❌👑 @SSWorks]

Social Security is the American people's EARNED BENEFIT — not a piggy bank for Republicans to hand over to their Wall Street donors.

Don't let them steal our money.

VOTE to protect Social Security this November! #HandsOffSocialSecurity

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

When it came time to actually do something about inflation, Republicans said no.

[Andrew—#IAmTheResistance @AmoneyResists]

While we’re talking about Liz Truss, now seems like a good time to remind people that the Republican Party is running on an economic/tax platform that is virtually identical to the one she just resigned over.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

GOP Chair Ronna McDaniel is LIVID that Social Security has increased 8.7% under President Biden. She would HATE if you retweeted #HandsOffSocialSecurity and got it trending number one.

[L. Louise Lucas @SenLouiseLucas]

The more voters see of Virginia Republicans the more they will vote for us. Let him talk!
