An open letter from us who got you elected. Please do not, under any circumstances, help the Republicans out of their budget mess by supporting this continuing resolution which will crush people in Virginia.

What we did today along I-81 in very red Shenandoah County VA. It was cold, windy and glorious. Finding our community. Slava Ukraini!

In ruby red Shenandoah County VA, we had 70+ of us at an "overpass rally" for Ukraine. We were blown away (almost literally; it was gusty cold) by the supportive honking by I-81 truckers and cars as well as local traffic on Rt. 42. Slava Ukraini!

Today we had district-wide protests at Cline VA6 offices, demanding a town hall. The middle of a workday. At each of the four locations (Winchester, Harrisonburg, Staunton, Roanoke), there were well over 200 people. Candidate Ken Mitchell showed up in Winchester.

Cline hasn't seen anything yet. οΏΌ

Our family (in DC) was cheering the πŸ¦…πŸ¦….

With 40 years of sporting events (baseball and football), my husband hates Philly fans.

The Philly Enquirer has been pretty much begging its fans not to riot in celebration.

So... What a game! Like you, I hope everyone's safe tonight!
