We often talk about the importance of state races. In a recent episode of the Build the Change podcast, our ED, @Lala_wu, teams up with Alok Vaid-Menon to delve into how these races can transform the lives of thousands—for better or worse. Listen now: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

wild fact that captures just how much gerrymandering can decimate the very pretense of competition: out of 300+ districts in Louisiana & Mississippi, not a single legislative election this fall ended up being within 10% between the two parties. boltsmag.org/2023-legislatu…

Excited to be in Richmond today for the new member orientation! Thankful also that Sara got to join me on this first day. I can’t wait to get to work serving Norfolk’s 94th district.
Such an AMAZING team this year - they put it ALL on the field! A special shoutout to @unitehere @va_labor @WorkingFamilies @CASAinAction @Sister_District @VictoryFund @TeamFreedomVA and the countless groups and folks who gave their time! This is for ALL of us! Thank You!!
Tuesday's elections were not only a huge win for abortion but for democracy too. newsfromthestates.com/article/state-…
Today's losses are down payments on tomorrow's wins 💪🏆
Today's losses are down payments on tomorrow's wins 💪🏆
Dems took full control of the Virginia Legislature — avoiding an abortion ban. Dems reelected their Governor in Kentucky. Ohio enshrined abortion rights in their constitution. It’s all a firm rejection of extremism & an embrace of the American values of democracy & freedom.
Pennsylvania Dems are on track to FLIP the Superior Court. What's that? It's the court right below state supreme court that handles appeals in most criminal cases, & some civil cases. They are up to gain 2 GOP-held seats. (This is on top of Dems winning a supreme court seat.)
The first bill I will submit in the Senate is the safe storage legislation I’ve carried in the House. We can and must do more to keep our kids safe from gun violence. The Governor should sign it when it passes the House and Senate.
VICTORY🎉 Voters have sent a clear message tonight: abortion access is here to stay. Thank you to the exceptional candidates, the grassroots volunteers, and every person who donated, phone banked, and voted to make this win possible. Virginia's General Assembly is blue again!

I’m truly honored to receive over 70% of the vote in my Senate reelection campaign. Now off to November for the runoff. Thank you voters!
We got speeches in both chambers! True to his word, @ScVanValkenburg finished up 4+ hours on the floor with a speech congratulating @lucydacus! Huge thanks to our legislators for celebrating homegrown talent ☺️💗
When you visit a school and tell students your fav pokemon is Mewtwo - they gave me this 🥹
Really love this version of this cursed website where I report posts by users that tell me that Jews are nefarious blood suckers or that Islam is a disease, and X happily replies in minutes that those tweets don't violate their rules. 2024 is going to be awesome.
At some point the country needs to have a big conversation about what an utter failure and disaster the Republican Party has been for decades now. It is as I say the most important, least understood story in American politics today.
Since 1989 and a new age of globalization began, 50 million net new jobs have been created in America. 48 million of those, 96%, have been created under Democratic Presidents. Essentially all of them. Dems make things better. Rs are a wrecking ball. 3/
I introduced my 1st new bill of the year: Closing the “locked door” loophole for auto break-ins, SB 905. Under existing law, even if you can prove someone broke into a car, if you can’t also prove the doors were locked, you can’t prove the case. SB 905 eliminates that loophole.
TOMORROW: We’re kicking off the year with @_lala_wu_ of @Sister_District for a great conversation on why the battle for redistricting will be center stage in 2024! Get it wherever you get your podcasts 🎙
In my past life, I led a media production team, so it was fun to dust the cobwebs off the creative side of my brain and produce a video recap of our Election Day 2023. The full recap is 10 minutes, so here is the snippet; full video is in the link below youtu.be/PtYz6paC3qg?si…
Some personal news! (I've always wanted to say that)... That's me! My essay on loneliness & social isolation, "Somebody in My House," has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize. So honored, & grateful to ALL the good folks at @SouthernHReview for publishing my essay & for the nod.
Help us congratulate these brilliant writers as we nominate their work for the Pushcart Prize anthology! @tbfxdonnelly, Stephanie Yue Duhem, Elizabeth Gonzalez James, @helenaolufsen, L.I. Henley, & @JTaylorSkinner #poetry #fiction #nonfiction #writingcommunity #pushcart
Oakland City Council passed a reso calling for Gaza ceasefire. When a council member asked to add language condemning Hamas, a stream of public comment praising & supporting Hamas ensued. The council then rejected the request to condemn Hamas. Just awful.
I’m really honored that @TIME Magazine included me on its inaugural Time 100 Climate: 100 leaders “making significant progress in fighting climate change.” Climate change remains an urgent threat to our future. It’s vital that California continue to lead on the world stage. 🧵
David covers it with snark, but it's an interesting phenomenon in the past few years to watch (mostly) GOP legislatures preempt cities over issues from paid leave to minimum wage to permitting gas line extensions to funding clean energy. Yes, climate policy preemption! 🧵
You're telling me that the supposed conservative devotion to "local control" only applies when being used to justify racism in the sticks & goes out the window when it comes to blue cities? Interesting. washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/11…
I hate that this needs to be said, but Israeli women deserve to be protected from rape and sexual assault, too. haaretz.com/israel-news/20…
