Virginia House Criminal Justice Reform Public Meetings [[link removed]]
As we reflect on the impacts of COVID-19 and the movement for Black Lives over the past few months, our membership is often left wondering what more they can do. An important action that you can take is impacting our legislative process through contacting legislators and speaking in open comment sessions.

Governor Northam recently announced that the Virginia General Assembly will be convening on August 18th [[link removed]] for a special session to take steps to combat the pandemic, police brutality against Black communities, and workers’ protections. AYD has an advantage in the process of Criminal Justice Reform and Police Reform in the General Assembly since a member of our Arlington Delegation, Del. Patrick Hope HoD-47, chairs the Public Safety Committee in the House of Delegates.

We are encouraging all of our members to take this opportunity to either write to your Delegates and State Senators or speak about issues that you feel strongly about during public meetings of the Joint House Courts of Justice and Public Safety Committees on July 22th, July 29th, and August 6th [[link removed]] . The Arlington Young Democrats are committed to not just using the slogans of the Black Lives Matter Movement, but to also push for positive action for meaningful change in our Commonwealth through our legislative process.

To find who your legislators are, please visit whosmy.virginiageneralassembly.gov/ [[link removed]]

For more information, please visit bit.ly/vahousecalendar [[link removed]] or email our vice president, Matt Royer, at [email protected] [[email protected]] .
