Views are my own.
I grew up watching Sean on WSET in Lynchburg as a kid fascinated by weather. I was a reporting intern at the same newsroom years later.

I reintroduced myself to him at a Chesterfield Dems meeting a few months ago, and it was refreshing to talk politics - and weather - with him.

Will be following!
This is an unprecedented time in our nation's history.

Conspiracies, lies, and gaslighting are running amok.

We need more scientists in Congress.

I was born and raised here, and I am running to represent all Virginians from Chesterfield County to the Chesapeake Bay.

Higher unemployment rates = a weaker economy.

Federal workforce cuts don't just impact Northern Virginians—it impacts Virginia's entire economy.

From cuts to school funding to restaurants and stores losing business, every Virginian will be hurt.

Federal workforce cuts could create unemployment levels in Northern Virginia not seen in living memory. That's a potential problem for rural Virginia.
Rural school systems get most of their money from the state, and the biggest single source of state funding is income tax revenue from Northern Virginia.

Wild that we live in a timeline where Mitch McConnell is the only Republican Senator with common sense.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

if you're a democratic senator and you're still voting to confirm trump nominees despite him allowing elon musk to gleefully dismantle the government then your brain has fallen out of your ass.

The takeover of Twitter was a preview of what we're all living with now and a stark example of why you can't let any one person have too much money: they go insane and make themselves everybody's problem

Feeling the need to share this again!!
I’m all in favor of primaries.

However, sometimes it’s important to weigh if the seat is worth diverting money and resources away from seats that we need to keep or were margins away from flipping in 2023.

Clout ain’t worth what is on the line.

No one elected Elon Musk.

As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences.

We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Background: 60 USAID employees had been placed on leave for “undermining” Trump’s executive orders. Nick Gottlieb was told by DOGE to then fire them. Instead he emailed all of them earlier saying he found no evidence of misconduct and used his power to take them off leave. Then he was put on leave.

My office just got a phone call from a domestic violence shelter — the only one serving multiple counties — that says they may have to close their doors if President Trump doesn’t reverse course.

We’ve been on the phone with multiple agencies/orgs. They’ve been completely cut off from federal money. We’re talking housing, homeless services, public safety, etc.

I’m calling a press conference today to explain how this could have drastic local impacts to our constituents.
