    This poster is in your Capitol on a booth sponsored by @WVGOP “When someone shows you who they are, believe them”

    So these a$$holes from Patriot Front just marched through our beautiful town. While I support their 1st amendment right to PEACEFUL assembly…I also support our right to flip them off!

    I cannot understand why it is so hard for my Republican colleagues to say it is wrong to display an islamaphobic, hateful poster in the Capitol this morning

    If you can read this, thank a teacher. (By “thank” I mean pay them a competitive salary, fund their health insurance program, and treat them like professionals with the respect they deserve.) #55strong #55united

    What you need to know about #WVTeachersStrike :Governor offered a deal. Teachers and service personnel agreed to it. The House voted for it 98-1. @SenCarmichaelWV and GOP Senators are prolonging strike for political gain. Your kids aren’t in school because of Senate Republicans

    I see a lot of @WVGOP operatives and politicians posting about the pay raise and benefits in SB451. They don’t get it. It was never about the money for the teachers, it’s about protecting public schools. It isn’t about the teachers, it’s about the kids. #55Strong

    As an elected Democrat in WV, I understand the political realities of a red state. However, I truly believe many in WV would benefit from paid leave, child tax credits, worker retraining, lower drug costs and many of the provisions in BBB. Good policy is always the best politics.

    Replying to @JimJustice_WV and @WVGovernor
    I was in the room in 2016 when you told us you were pro choice. It wasn’t your first lie nor your last.

    I heard part time @WVGovernor had lots to say about our city and our Mayor today. He doesn’t know Charleston because he’s rarely here. And for Jim Justice to refer to our first female mayor as “baby” says more about Jim Justice than it does about Mayor Amy Goodwin. #TeamCRW

    I just received a phone call from a young constituent who will be leaving WV and taking his business, employees with him. @WVGOP is bad for business and families and especially harmful to women. Sadly they don’t care. They don’t want you here unless you look and pray like them.

    It is quite clear @SenCarmichaelWV does not want a resolution to this strike. His game is to prolong it and keep the kids out of school until public opinion turns on the teachers and service personnel. Remind him this is not a game. He’s playing with the lives of real WVians.

    Thrilled and extremely proud that @POTUS has chosen two stellar candidates to be West Virginia's U.S. Attorneys, Matt Harvey in the Northern District and Moore Capito in the Southern District. I look forward to supporting their quick confirmations so they can get to work on

    The new talking point from the GOP in the Legislature is that WV teachers are being misled and misinformed by their “union bosses”. That’s an insult to the intelligence of our teachers. They can read the papers, watch the live feed and figure out who’s on their side and who’s not
