Instead of maneuvering to find sound bytes and kill-shots, Mr. Buttigieg has given me confidence that his knowledge, intellectual capacities, personal experience and struggles have made him the most intriguing and highest-upside candidate in this race for the presidency.

I am pleased to have the endorsement of the hardest-working grassroots organization on the planet, @MomsDemand . These upcoming elections in November will determine whether VA is able to pass life-saving measures to curb gun violence. It's up to you. Can we count on you to vote?

I appreciate being honored with the 2020 Legislator of the Year award from the Virginia Association of Planning District Commissions. During the ongoing public health emergency, it is even more critical that these collaborations are taking place.

Wonderful to support the re-election campaign of my dear friend Delegate Vivian Watts at yesterday’s event. Vivian has served as the Secretary of Public Safety and Transportation here in Virginia, and she continues to be an exceptional representative for Fairfax County

After the election results of November 7th, we have a unique opportunity to reform a number of ill-advised policies that have been put in place or have been difficult to change.

Today, I am announcing that I will run for re-election to the Virginia State Senate in 2023. This week, the Supreme Court of Virginia finalized the new boundaries for the State Senate, along with the House of Delegates, and U.S. House of Representatives.

Thanks for the conversation, there are regional differences in local tax rates, and also public transit options. No Car Tax was revitalized by @twhiteboyd , Democratic nominee for Senate District 4. White-Boyd ran on eliminating the car tax as a way to help SWVA working families.

Some Virginia lawmakers hope to end the car tax, but will 2024 be the year?
