Left leaning policies are popular. Not in theory, not in polls, but in direct elections. KY votes to legalize weed. MO, MT, NV, and FL vote above 50% for reproductive rights. AL, MO, and AZ vote for higher minimum wage. We may have lost this year, but we will come back stronger.
This week all 106 cities and counties that had medical cannabis on the ballot voted to allow businesses to operate in their communities. This signals what we have known: Kentuckians want their loved ones who have serious medical conditions to have access to the care they need.

Had a great time at the RVA Dudes for Harris/Walz event tonight. We talked about a lot of important issues and how we find common ground with each other. Thank you @RastStephen for putting it together! #HarrisWalz

It's a good time to mention the Richmond Dudes for Harris event in Virginia this week. We can't solve every problem overnight, but we need to start somewhere. Young men are struggling to find purpose. We need to reach out to them before it's too late. https://t.co/uKEHELyfxA
I hope I’m wrong but if we lose in November I think the main reason why will be the number of young men of all races that are no longer Democrats. There’s been a taboo about talking about this because we understandably are hesitant to make men a main point of conversation (given

Imagine being in the party that is “pro family values” while you’re the lone senator that is apparently pro child brides… Sideyeing John McGuire hard on this one.

The bill to end legacy admissions was introduced and sponsored by Senator @ScVanValkenburg and Delegate @HelmerVA, who are both Democrats. We could have celebrated a bipartisan victory for the Commonwealth, but you're demonizing other people for working together.
The fact that Republicans have to stand up for something as basic as merit-based college admissions is one of the clearest signs that the left is totally and completely morally bankrupt.

The @HenricoCitizen just published an article about my race for local office. Check it out and get to know the differences between me and my opponent.
The race for Brookland District supervisor matches incumbent Republican Dan Schmitt against Democratic challenger Stephen Rast. We asked both 10 questions and are publishing their answers in Q&A format. Other district races will follow. https://t.co/tKD6h5XWEq

Do you want to learn about nature and wildlife? Stop by the Native plant festival at Crump Park, learn about the natural resources we have here in VA, and pick up some native plants for sale.

I'm excited to accept the endorsement from @SenBagby. He has been a strong leader and has fought tirelessly to make Henrico a better place to live.

A #Friday13th in October is the spookiest day of the year, which means that it's Lizzy's favorite day of the year.
