WOW - Virginia Republicans just voted to continue to allow personal use of campaign funds.
I’m betting most people just assumed this was illegal.

- 52 GOP just voted to keep a prohibition on gay marriage in VA’s Constitution. 2 days after voting against protecting teachers ability to teach about the Supreme Court ruling that recognized gay marriage. Apparently they don’t believe Virginia is for Lovers.
- I want to thank the President- @BarackObama - for the largest pay raise in military pay in the past 10 years. And also, for not lying about military pay.
- Virginia House Republicans just voted to pass a guns in public playgrounds bill.
- If you ever wonder whether elections matter, here’s the sign that just went up on the park by my house because we flipped Virginia and then we passed a bill that allows localities to keep firearms off public property
- My name is Dan Helmer. I am a veteran, father, and proud Virginia Delegate. Last week, we flipped the Virginia Legislature blue, and today, I am proud to announce that I will be running for Congress to keep Virginia's 10th Congressional District blue.
- Struck by reporting that Judge Amy Barrett did not wear a mask while meeting with the President, Senators, and senior White House officials. Does that reflect the judgment of someone who should sit on the Supreme Court?
- In Afghanistan, we wore body armor because Al Qaeda & the Taliban carried AK47s. You shouldn’t need body armor to shop at Walmart. We’re ready for leadership who will fight for change. #EnoughIsEnough #DaytonShooting #ElPasoShooting #HD40
00:00 - Wow - I miss the days (was it only a month ago) when Virginia had an Attorney General who thought that women ought to be treated equally under the law.
- .@GlennYoungkin wrote Day 1 “We must equip our teachers to teach our students the entirety of our history – both good and bad.” GOP just voted against teaching 3/5 Compromise. Literally in the Constitution. Patriots fought to change that So much for teaching history #TeachTruth
- SB 739 passed. Ends ability of school boards to employ public health measures to combat COVID. Like everyone, I hate wearing a mask. I do it because I hate prospect of harming others more. As a parent of 2 public school students & husband of a teacher, I'm deeply saddened.
- My wife has a heart condition that means she could die if pregnant. She & every other Virginia woman deserve the right to choose. Supreme Court will overturn Roe & the clock is ticking. Thank you @TheLastWord & @CapehartJ for having me on to discuss how Democrats must act now.
00:00 - No one, not even the President, is above the law. We need to elect leaders who will stand up to him and fight for our progressive values. #VA10
00:00 - 52 Republicans just voted to put thousands of Virginians in medical bankruptcy. Every Virginian should be able to afford healthcare.
