So exciting to have Lily Franklin joining the campaign as my campaign manager!
There's nobody I trust more to run this campaign, because Lily is dedicated to giving hardworking families across the Blue Ridge a fair shot, and she knows how to win.
Had the opportunity to stand with members of the Virginia Education Association for #Red4Ed today.
Our educators and public service workers deserve the right to come together and negotiate for fair pay and safe working conditions.
Incredibly proud of the Pats for an unbelievable season.
Nobody thought we’d even make the playoffs, and we ended up AFC champs and in the Super Bowl! Can’t wait to see what we do next season.
I’m excited to announce I’m running to serve as VAYD’s Southwest Region Chair at convention!
Southwest Virginia has always been a region of fighters. I’ll work every day to organize our communities—listening, connecting, and advocating across the region so every voice is heard.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve as VAYD Political Director this past year. I won’t be running for another term, but I look forward to continuing the work through the end of my term in March. Thank you to everyone who placed their trust in me to serve. More from me soon!
A major step closer to ending the Virginia car tax! 👏
.@LilyForDelegate first ever bill passed to help Virginians and lower everyday costs. Sad to see so many Va House Republicans sit this one out.
New: @SalimVASenate's assault weapons ban bill includes a pretty big change compared to previous versions.
It would make it illegal to sell all assault weapons in Virginia.
Previous versions banned the sale of only new assault weapons, manufactured after a certain date.
I just contacted my Senators and Representative urging them to hold ICE accountable. I asked my Senators to vote NO on the DHS funding bill and to call for the abolition of ICE.
I encourage everyone to call your representatives at (202) 224-3121.
This, along with other big restrictions on the 2nd amendment, are such ridiculously bad ideas that threaten the liberty of Virginians. At a time like this, we need to support all constitutional liberties.
Reasonable background checks are a good thing, but I’m not for this.
VA Sen. @SalimVASenate Introduces Legislation Banning Assault Weapons; Chief Co-Patron @CreighDeeds says "there is nothing in our Constitution, or in any of the jurisprudence, that guarantees anybody the right to own and possess an assault style weapon.” https://t.co/wmTv8Z0ZKn
I’m thrilled to share my study to RESPONSIBLY repeal the most hated tax in Virginia, the CAR TAX, has passed subcommittee!
I appreciate @GovernorVA’s support of this bill as we work to make Virginia more affordable.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, our electric bills are too dang high! APCo customer bills have increased by 158% since 2007, more than 3X the rate of inflation. To fight against rising utility costs, our bipartisan effort will ensure fairness and affordability for all Virginians in the APCo service region.
