Yesterday, I spoke about the Governor's vetoes of commonsense gun violence prevention bills. The majority of Virginians support our bills to ensure safe storage & disarm violent abusers. Virginians demand action and we will continue fighting for them.

#TBT to my visit to Bishop Ireton High School's chapter of Rho Kappa, the only national honor society for high schoolers that recognizes excellence in the field of Social Studies. I enjoyed speaking with them about my work in the General Assembly and how they can get involved.

Gun violence is a daily crisis—from domestic violence to community violence to suicide. We need leaders who understand that & will fight to make us all safer. That’s why I proudly stand with @GIFFORDS_org and hope I can count on your vote this fall.

Earlier today, I attended the Meetings Issues Subcommittee of the FOIA Council where we discussed @AdamEbbin's bill about adding items to agendas, remote voting in states of emergency, FOIA rules for stakeholder meetings and more. I look forward to continuing our work next month!

I'm grateful to be endorsed by @RoeYourVoteVA! When we keep our House majority this fall, we'll send a constitutional amendment to protect all reproductive health care to the voters, so we can ensure Virginia is a permanent safe haven for abortion rights in the South.

Last week, I had the special opportunity of visiting @VirginiaABC's HQ and distribution center! I enjoyed hearing about their operations, products, and work to safe alcohol consumption. I also got to speak with Northern Virginia store managers and thank them for all they do.

I was proud to attend and speak at the #WearOrange Rally. Every gun death is preventable, and I know together, we can end gun violence. Special shoutout to the ACHS students with @StudentsDemand! Ruby's speech was inspiring and helped ground me in the importance of this work.

I'm excited that @SpanbergerForVA has included my proposal to preserve affordable housing in her housing agenda! My bill to address VA's critical housing crisis has been vetoed two years in a row by Gov. Youngkin and I can't wait to elect a Governor who will sign and champion it.
The cost of a mortgage or rent is just too high for many Virginians. No family should get priced out of their communities — which is why I have a plan to make Virginia more affordable.
