[Governor Abigail Spanberger @GovernorVA]

I am excited to announce a compromise proposal for a safe, legal, and well-regulated cannabis marketplace here in Virginia.

We will do it in a way that protects consumers, tamps down on the illicit market with clear enforcement and regulatory authority, and keep our kids safe once the marketplace is open. https://t.co/dP6GDW8XQC

When nearly 1 million Virginians are facing hunger, food assistance shouldn’t be a political weapon. Attorney General Jay Jones secured an injunction blocking Trump’s effort to politicize USDA grants tied to SNAP and WIC. Once again, Democrats are fighting for every Virginian.

@JenKiggans, we know you usually just nod your head in agreement with the President, so let us know if that goes for this too. I’m sure your constituents can’t wait to hear this one!

[Acyn @Acyn]

Reporter: Are you concerned, Mr. President, about the latest inflation number which came out this morning?

Trump: No, I love it. I love the inflation.

Hey Congressman, if you needed help faking a phone call, I’m sure one of your 190,000 constituents that rely on Social Security benefits could help with that next time!

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Rep. Rob Wittman (R-VA) faked a phone call for roughly 90 seconds after being asked about Speaker Mike Johnson’s comments regarding potential Social Security cuts.

The phone's screen remained visible, with his cheek inadvertently tapping different parts of the display.

While you struggle with sky-high gas and health care prices, Donald Trump is lining his pockets with market manipulation.

[VA House Democrats @VAHouseDems]

Lowering medicine costs is a top priority for House Democrats. We just passed @KarrieKDelaney's bill to establish the Prescription Drug Affordability Board to tackle this!

[VA House Democrats @VAHouseDems]

Virginia House Democrats just passed a bill to address child care funding in Virginia. Our goal is simple: make sure Virginia families have access to affordable, quality child care. Thank you @BrianaSewellVA!

[Senator Schuyler VanValkenburg @ScVanValkenburg]

A year later @vademocrats passed expansion and over 700k Virginians were able to access health care as a result.

One of the most important votes I’ve taken in my nine years in the legislature. And proof that elections do matter.

[Adam Ebbin 🇺🇦 @AdamEbbin]

Congratulations to Senator-elect @EBPforVA and Delegate-elect @KirkMcPike on their resounding victories! The results are a clear mandate for their sensible progressive views and a repudiation of MAGA extremism.

[Ken Martin @kenmartin73]

Elizabeth Bennett-Parker’s win is another clear sign that voters are rejecting Trump and the GOP’s billionaire-first agenda and are instead choosing Democrats who will fight for working families.

This win guarantees a Democratic trifecta in Virginia—congratulations Elizabeth!

[Lamont Bagby @DPVAChair]

I look forward to welcoming Elizabeth to the Senate of Virginia and Kirk to the House of Delegates. I am eager to get to work alongside them to move the Commonwealth forward in this new chapter of leadership.

[Lamont Bagby @DPVAChair]

Elizabeth has shown through her work in the House of Delegates that she is focused on tackling the everyday challenges facing Virginia families, while Kirk brings years of public service and a thoughtful, solutions-driven approach to public leadership.
