#VoteWexton
On Saturday night, an unauthorized tweet came from a campaign account. I regret that this happened and it shouldn’t have. I have addressed it with my team. We must continue to work to bring Virginians together. There is so much more that unites us than divides us.
All I have to say to my Republican colleagues in the House and Senate—your silence as the President disparages our troops, veterans, wounded warriors, and dead heroes is deafening.
We just released our first ad of the general election!
I’m a mom, former prosecutor, and current state Senator running to represent
#VA10
because our children’s futures depend on the decisions Congress makes.
We need a leader who will bring us together, unite us as one country, and restore the promise of America.
I know that
@JoeBiden
is that leader.
He has the vision and experience to deliver results on the issues that matter most to Virginians.
This Tuesday, I'm voting for Joe.
Most people don’t know about the back of VA’s state seal - it’s inscribed with the word “perseverando” or persevering – and three goddesses.
Virginia elected three badass women to Congress last night.
Congrats to

@realDonaldTrump

I was clearly talking about Russia.
Remember... the country who attacked our democracy in 2016 and who your party's leader has an awfully tough time separating himself from?

I’ve loved seeing all the energy and enthusiasm around Virginia this weekend—let’s finish strong.
Vice President Pence defends President Trump walking out a meeting with Democratic leaders: "I think the president made his position very clear today that there will be no deal without a wall. There will be no deal without the priorities the president has put on the table"

@JoeBiden
knows that rebuilding & investing in our federal agencies must be a top priority.
Whether it's getting social security checks out on time or ensuring our veterans get the best possible care—all Americans, regardless of political affiliation, rely on federal workers.
We have a lot of great Democrats running for President, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what our candidates will do to strengthen and rebuild the federal workforce after 4 years of Trump—because federal workers make America work.
Barbara Comstock is scared.
She's scared because her

She's scared because she is beholden to the NRA and special interests.

We released our first TV and cable ad. We’ve cut taxes for families and businesses and our economy is booming and bringing good paying jobs to Virginia’s 10th District and the country. But my opponent, ranked the

I was going to go to Bedminster, New Jersey, this weekend, but wanted to stay in Washington, D.C. to make sure LAW & ORDER is enforced. The arsonists, anarchists, looters, and agitators have been largely stopped...
I'm proud to be among the many strong gun safety advocates in our new Congress.
I plan to push for common sense gun violence prevention legislation starting my very first day in office.
#VA10
Shame on everyone in the General Assembly who voted against this bill.
We won’t be able to stop all shootings, but elected officials should want to stop some.
Elections are coming in November and we need to make sure we flip the House and Senate.
This is the

I swore an oath to uphold and defend our constitution and I can’t sit idly by while this President chips away at the pillars of our democracy.
I believe the time has come for the House of Representatives to open an impeachment inquiry.

Serving our district in Congress these past two years has been the honor of my life. I'm beyond grateful for the opportunity to continue fighting for the issues that matter to our kids and families.

More than 50% of the women killed with guns in the U.S. are murdered by their partners.
But in states that have comprehensive background checks, 47% fewer women are shot to death by partners.
We need to do better at the federal level and we will do better in the next Congress.
Dr. Tamara O'Neal, along with two others, were shot by a gunman at Chicago’s Mercy Hospital.
She was murdered by her former fiancé. She recently broke off an engagement with him.
An investigation that has already produced over 100 criminal charges and six guilty pleas is not a

Maybe for once
@realDonaldTrump
, you could stop the dangerous fearmongering, especially in light of recent credible threats of violence.
Law enforcement already has its hands full & this doesn’t help.
By the way—I thought you supported stronger background checks, Mr. President?
Your 2nd Amendment is under very serious attack in the Great Commonwealth of Virginia. That’s what happens when you vote for Democrats, they will take your guns away. Republicans will win Virginia in 2020. Thank you Dems!

Today, I’m proud to endorse even more Democratic candidates who aren’t just running against something, but for something—to expand opportunity for all of us and to restore dignity, honor, and compassion to public service. They deserve your vote:

The President showed us who he is when he called Mexicans rapists and criminals.
He showed us again when he called them “shithole countries.”
And he’s showing us today when targeting Congresswomen of color who — by the way — are Americans.
He’s a racist and a bigot.
....and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how....

There's a disgusting display of bigotry today led by the new House Minority Leader Majorie Taylor Greene (Q-No Committees).
To every Trans kid & person out there, please know that you are loved and supported.
I’ll be holding you all in my heart during our vote today.
What a disgrace. It takes a special kind of bigotry to attack those who have committed to serving our country.
I have and always will stand with our transgender community.
The Pentagon will enforce the Trump administration’s transgender military ban starting April 12. There are currently 14,700 transgender people serving in the U.S. military.
It says a lot about the GOP that they’re going after Liz Cheney harder than they are Marjorie Taylor Greene.
One voted her conscience.
The other is a racist, anti-Semitic, and dangerous menace.
What a sick, sad man.
More than 220,000 Americans are dead because your administration's response has been one of the greatest failures of leadership in American history.
We are bringing change to

New Pod! The Kavanaugh hearings have begun, and Trump spent his Labor Day weekend attacking union leaders and slashing wages for workers. Then we read our favorite excerpts from Bob Woodward's new book. Guest former President Jimmy Carter.
The president would like you to know he canceled his vacation so he could hold the pay of hundreds of thousands of federal workers hostage. Over some useless steel slats.
Some of the many Bills that I am signing in the Oval Office right now. Cancelled my trip on Air Force One to Florida while we wait to see if the Democrats will help us to protect America’s Southern Border!

Heartbroken by the tragedy in Thousand Oaks. I am thinking of the victims, their families, and the first responders at yet another mass shooting. We must take action to stop this slaughter of innocents. We need gun violence prevention reforms now.

We expanded Medicaid this year and now 375,000 Virginians are expected to enroll in the program.
That means a healthier, more productive Virginia where people can access preventive care.

It’s sickening to watch some Republicans complain about the cost of $2,000 checks going directly to Americans in a pandemic while they cheered on a $2 trillion tax cut for the ultra-wealthy and large corporations 2 years ago.
Hypocrisy is art form for these elected “leaders.”
