Virginians, If having a Democratic majority in Congress is important, you must vote for Jay Jones for Attorney General. If Virginia poceeds with redistricting the Attorney General will defend legal challenges against it. The fate of democracy is way more important than some unfortunate text messages

Trump just called American citizens “the enemy within,” encouraging the men and women of the armed forces to use OUR cities as military training grounds.
It’s time to wake up, put aside our differences, and create a united front to oppose Trump’s unconstitutional and illegal abuse of power.
