. . . with liberty and justice for all.
All eyes are on Virginia. Progressive Democrats helped pass clean energy, firearms safety, healthcare, higher education, housing, workers’ rights, marijuana, natural resources, and voting rights legislation and ABOLISHED THE DEATH PENALTY. I am running to put you first by continuing to pass justice legislation.

Environmental Justice
We have a right to breathe clean air, drink clean water, and eat non-toxic food. We must be good caretakers of our natural resources and utilize environmentally friendly practices throughout the Commonwealth.
Economic Justice
The key to a thriving economy is jobs. People live in rural communities, and they need local jobs. They need nearby businesses to employ them and to fulfill their food, clothing, medical, and other needs.
Education Equality
Education is the best weapon. The way out of poverty, the path to a better democracy, and the road to equality and justice is education. Students in low income communities deserve the same high quality education as those in higher income communities.
Healthcare Equality
Healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Medical treatment must remain a decision made between patient and doctor. No discriminatory distinction should be made between female and male patient.
Lay down the burdens of hate at last and let peace finally triumph over violence, aggression, and war. ~ Rep. John Lewis (1940-2020)

RAISE YOUR VOICE AT THE POLLS.
Your vote is your voice. Women and people of color fought for, were beaten and killed so they and you can vote. Don’t let their sacrifices be for nothing. EVERY vote counts. Virginia is making it easier for us to exercise our right to vote while other states are making it harder. Show those states what Virginia voters can do. VOTE.
