3 years ago, @POTUS signed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. So far, Virginia has received over $10.5 billion from that law, including funding for over 350 specific projects to support communities and create good-paying jobs. More info here: whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl…

As a member of @HASCDemocrats, I have deep concerns about Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense. He opposes women in combat and initiatives to address decades of inequity in the military, and lacks the experience necessary to lead the most powerful fighting force in the world.

The MAGA counter to the DEI hiring? White guy nominees like @mattgaetz and @PeteHegseth who are so grossly unqualified that Trump insists on recess appointments and no normal vetting and Republican Senators are threatened with MAGA primary opponents if they don’t heel.

Daddy was honored by Virginia Union University’s School of Theology in the Inaugural Circle of Samuel Dewitt Proctor Fellows, as a past Dean. He would have much to offer about the world we live in today. He would remind us of our history and liberty where God is to press forward.

#OnThisDay in 1960, Ruby Bridges became the first African American to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South at William Frantz School in New Orleans, Louisiana. For the entire school year, only 1 teacher taught Bridges in a classroom by herself. #ANationsStory

Two years ago today, we lost three University of Virginia students too soon because of the scourge of gun violence. It’s unconscionable that we live in a society where these events are common – for all those we’ve lost prematurely, I’m pushing for sensible gun safety laws.

I just went down to the Senate Floor to try and pass a bipartisan bill to reauthorize disaster assistance for small businesses. I’m deeply disappointed my colleagues blocked it, but I’m absolutely not stopping my fight for communities that were seriously hurt by Helene.

On this day in 1960, Ruby Bridges bravely walked through those doors, becoming the first Black child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South. Her courage paved the way for change and inspired generations.

Loudoun counted its final votes Harris will win 56%-40% Down from 61.5%-36.5% for 9% swing Provisionals give clue about what happened Typically very Dem, but Harris narrowly won them here Most are same-day registrations suggesting late tuning in voters more Trump friendly

Please help me understand something. If a person convicted of 34 felonies, serves no jail time, is under several indictments for serious crimes that are likely to disappear, is known for sexual misconduct, but can be elected to the highest office in tbe U.S., what rationale is…

Today, we remember Devin Chandler, D'Sean Perry, and Lavel Davis Jr., who were tragically taken from us two years ago. In the face of loss, the @UVA community came together with strength, unity, and love. Forever in our hearts. #UVAStrong

The University community will observe a moment of silence Wednesday at 1:55 p.m. to honor the lives lost in 2022. More details here: uvatoday.me/3AC8fxD #UVAStrong

Right now, millions of Americans are being stripped of their Social Security benefits, because they chose to pursue a career in public service. This is wrong. I cosponsored the #SocialSecurityFairnessAct to address this long-standing issue.

My visit to Prince George County’s Beazley Elementary was so heartwarming. It was affirming to hear the need to address aging infrastructure of our schools with the Superintendent and school leadership. And truly so much fun to hear bill ideas from our 3rd graders.
