The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.

This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.

yesterday I was behind a woman walking into the GAB and I could see her skirt below her coat on one side but not at all on the other and I told her I thought her skirt might be tucked into her underwear and it wasn’t. It was just really short 🤦🏼‍♀️

the league tried its damnedest to mess this up, and if rodman didn't have the connection to dc and the community of supporters at audi field, she would be yet another star leaving. they'll tout this as a league-wide win, it is not, the win is the property of the women's soccer community in dc.

This morning, I was thrilled to have my bill to provide free breakfast for all VA public school students pass out of subcommittee unanimously! Children cannot learn if they are hungry. This bill is an investment in the health of our kids, our families, and our education system.

The #NWSL, where we just marveled at a 75 yard yard by Marta last week to close out a quarterfinal, and a week later, stunned by Kouassi making a 100 yard sprint for an opening goal sequence in a semifinal.

It was a beautiful day to get out the vote and to greet folks voting early! A ladybug landed on me while canvassing! I'm hoping it's a sign of good luck for our Democratic statewide ticket and our House Democratic Caucus.

If you haven’t already voted, vote on Tuesday between 6am-7pm!
