To all of you out there doing the unseen work in maternal health...the doulas, midwives, nurses, NPs, doctors, & advocates, thank you. To the mamas fighting to be heard and believed, thank you for trusting me with this work. It's the honor of my life.

I am deeply grateful for the years of work by @SenLouiseLucas, @MargaretforVA, @destinyforva, and @LauraJaneCohen to protect mothers and families, and I am proud to sign their legislation into law.

Fear mongering at its finest. Classic Youngkin. Happy to throw children in front of the bus to distract from his garbage leadership on what is ACTUALLY killing our kids. Cannot wait to have Gun Violence Prevention Advocate @SpanbergerForVA as our next Governor.

Couldn't agree more. For people so obsessed with the 2nd Amendment, they seem to have skipped over the First.
After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like. yahoo.com/news/articles/let-…
Devastated to hear about the shooting deaths of 3 York County, PA police officers. May their memories be a blessing to their families.

At a time when our politics feel so divided, Virginians want — and deserve — a Governor who can work with anyone to deliver results.
I’m proud to have the support of @BarbaraComstock, @Denver4VA, and Republicans across the Commonwealth who are focused on putting Virginia first.
Polls are open until 7p, Virginia! Don't miss your chance to help decide who our Democratic candidates will be in November!

I had the privilege to meet and get to know Speaker Melissa Hortman over the last few years. She was a beautiful soul and a dedicated and empathetic leader. Our prayers are extended on this tremendous loss of Melissa and Mark Hortman.
So proud of our town. All the honks, cheers, & waves were such a great reminder, especially on a day like today, that we are not alone.

Glenn "petty Betty" Youngkin. Kids in Dem districts are dying, too, from Fentanyl, improperly stored prescription drugs, & unsecured firearms. PB Youngkin doesn't actually care about our kids. If he did, he'd have signed the bill @sgpekarsky & I put on his desk 2 years in a row.
Dems are mad at @GovernorVA.
Today, he ceremonially signed a bill to allow certain fentanyl dealers to be charged with involuntary manslaughter.
However, Youngkin only signed @ryanmcdougle's bill and not Democrat @VA_JET 's identical bill.
Dems say Thomas wasn't invited.
Proud to be in this fight with you!
Clean Virginia is proud to endorse Delegate Laura Jane Cohen in HD 15 for her proven commitment to fighting for lower energy costs and a government that works for every Virginian. Please join us in supporting @LauraJaneCohen this fall!
Thank you @AtoosaReaser for your hard work to keep our kids safe! ❤️
GVP bills signed into law ensure parents are equipped to protect their children. Grateful for bipartisan support & to @MikeFeggans for championing safe storage omnibus legislation & @LauraJaneCohen for empowering parents to keep kids safe. When reelected we'll make bigger strides
