Did you know there are 2 great bills to finally properly fund Virginia's incredible state parks and outdoor treasures?
So good that my team at Sierra Club and also Dominion Energy are working to get this across the finish line!
Thanks to @delterrykilgore and @SenDaveMarsden!
Good morning from Richmond, Virginia, where Democrats just nominated @JennMcClellanVA to be our first Black woman in Congress with a resounding 84% of the vote!
Many bipartisan standing ovations through the Ukraine section of this speech so far.

Can you help us get 5,000 signatures for trails like the Fall Line?! The General Assembly starts today! The single biggest thing you can do for biking and walking is to support the Trails budget!

Okay, Alexandria:
1) Don’t panic.
2) Get boosted (only 28% of our vax’d folks have)!
3) Wear a mask when indoors.
4) Limit unmasked gatherings.
5) Get tested…a lot.
Let’s keep our kids in schools and our hospital as quiet as possible.

The Bay is one of our most treasured natural resources—this funding will generate $8 billion in economic growth and keep it safe and thriving for generations to come.
The earned income tax credit is the single most effective policy lever to lift families out of poverty.
Very proud that @GovernorVA is once again proposing to make it up to 15% refundable -- a huge deal for working Virginians. https://t.co/VpKmnQ4ulF
@GovernorVA is proposing $27 million to establish and staff the Virginia Center for Violence Intervention & Prevention. The center would collect data on firearm violence, report on findings & provide support to localities/community-based organizations
