Virginians deserve the right to marry who they love — full stop. I’m relieved that the Supreme Court decided to maintain this landmark precedent.
Virginia, come January, know that you will have a Governor who will always protect your right to marry.

URGENT!
There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this - share this widely.
CALL YOUR SENATORS today & ask them to vote NO.

This isn’t a loss it’s a foundation, and we’ll build on it again and again until every voice in our community is heard. Thank you for believing in me, for showing up, and for reminding me why I do this for us.
#District36 We didn’t win this race, but we did something powerful -we turned Waynesboro blue. That’s not just a color on a map.That’s a sign of change, of growth, of what happens when people come together and believe in something bigger than themselves.
