I’m probably not the first person to ever tell you this, but when Richmonders and Virginians across our state voted this year, they sent a message loud and clear: Virginians are ready for representatives who will work for the people.
Now that we have a Democratic majority in both chambers, it’s time for our new General Assembly to pass legislation that will help our children and families here in Richmond.
The road ahead in 2020 is full of opportunity, and I’m ready to work day and night with the newly elected members to ensure that our democracy is working for the people.
I know that the results of the November election are exactly what our state needs to keep moving forward, and I'm incredibly proud of our team for helping elect leaders who are fighting for equity and progress.
But flipping both chambers blue was just the first step, team.
