I recently moved from Houston to Virginia and am a lifelong Democrat. I am horrified and saddened by Trump’s assault on our federal agencies and civil service. I love gardening with native plants and seeing all the insects they support.

We had a great time with the candidates at the Buena Vista Labor Day Parade today! Thanks to the Lex/Rock/BV Dems for hosting! That's Ken Mitchell and band mates playing music. Lots of fired up Democrats supporting what working Americans deserve. #LaborDay #FairWage
