It was fun to attend the Alexandria Chamber Legislative Reception at the Alexandrian Hotel last night. There were brief remarks from the Chamber and the presentation of the 2025 Legislative Agenda. I was able to connect with many local and statewide officials involved in these issues! #Byrd4ALX

“Here’s the deal: I don’t belong to a party. That means I only answer to one constituency, the residents of Alexandria. That’s it,” Byrd said, “I will be your independent voice. I guarantee you, if I get elected, you will have a voice in City Hall. You will have a voice on Council.” #AlexTimes

I stopped by many neighborhoods across Alexandria for #nationalnightout2024 and talked with residents about my campaign for City Council. I ran into one of the new living legends Francis Terrell, as well as former Police Chief Don Hayes. It was also good to chat with John T. Chapman. #Byrd4ALX
