A special election day for us! ✅️ for @abigailspanberger.com @senatorhashmi.bsky.social @jonesjay.bsky.social. Get in line to vote by 7pm tonight!

Moments like these capture what public service should be about: compassion, connection, and community.

Thank you to Kee Jun and Young's Healthcare Senior Center for hosting!

We ended on a joyful note when he pulled out his harmonica and led everyone in a moving rendition of “This Land Is Your Land.” It was a simple, powerful reminder that our country, and our Commonwealth, belong to all of us, no matter our age, background, or circumstance.

It was inspiring to see how deeply US Senator Tim Kaine cares about the welfare of Virginia’s seniors: listening to their stories, asking thoughtful questions, and reaffirming his commitment to ensuring every older Virginian can age with dignity and access to quality care.

We don’t have a left vs. right problem in healthcare, we have a cost and accountability problem. Virginia can lead by fixing the system instead of fighting over it.

Medicaid isn't a handout, it's an investment that gives families a shot to thrive. As Virginia faces cuts, work requirements & higher eligibility thresholds, we can lead with smarter solutions. Let’s invest in people, not pull the rug out.

Just take the opposite of every recommendation from this panel, and you'll be fine.

It's Special Election Day! Proud to support my friend, @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social, who’s been a steady, thoughtful leader for our community. Polls are open until 7pm. Make your plan and go VOTE today! 🗳️

Trump seizing DC’s police isn’t “law & order.” It’s authoritarianism in plain sight. If he can do it in DC, he can do it anywhere. The only firewall we have is us. Vote midterms. Vote local. Vote state. Every ballot is a brick in the wall against tyranny.

Public health shouldn't be political, it’s about protecting kids. Florida’s move to eliminate vaccine requirements endangers us all.

Trump torched health care for 17M Americans. It’s time to fight back with something bolder.

Trump’s blowing up the federal government. But what if we used the same tools to actually help people?

✅️ Universal healthcare
✅️ A real living wage
✅️ Affordable care for our kids and parents.

Out of the ashes, we don’t rebuild, let's RE-IMAGINE.

Enough defense. Democrats need offense. California’s fight is the blueprint: meet fire with fire, and show voters there is a plan.

DC’s police just got taken over. The National Guard is on its streets. And the Mayor? Legally powerless. If they can do it here, they can do it anywhere.

Trump just fired the nation’s top labor economist for telling the truth. I spent 4 years at the World Bank. When leaders start firing the data people, democracy is in danger. Here's why this matters more than you think.

Today, student loans are racking up interest again, including mine. Trump just killed the most affordable repayment plan. Meanwhile, Australia canceled $10B in student debt on Day 1.

We can do the same for working class families.

We’ve seen what 6 months of Trump can do. Now imagine what a bold Democrat could do, with the same powers, but a different purpose.

Fire the cronies. Fund care. Deliver a real living wage. No more excuses.

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is unconscionable.

I’ve repeatedly spoken up to support more humanitarian aid, and today I’m calling on the Trump administration to press Netanyahu for immediate change.

Trump’s blowing up the federal government. But what if we used the same tools to actually help people?

✅️ Universal healthcare
✅️ A real living wage
✅️ Affordable care for our kids and parents.

Out of the ashes, we don’t rebuild, let's reimagine.

The Virginia Governor’s Race Has Republicans Reeling The party is debating how much it can afford to spend on a losing proposition.

Great read to start the day, by @politico.com's JMart.

It’s time we treat affordable dependent care as what it really is: essential infrastructure for a thriving economy.

💡 Child care costs more than college. Senior care drains families. Care workers are underpaid. And our economy? Losing over $600 billion a year. We don’t just have a care crisis, we have an economic emergency.

$7.25/hr is a reminder that the system is broken.

Adjusted for economic growth, workers deserve $25/hr. Yet, full-time workers today can't make a living.

This shouldn't be a partisan issue, it's about human dignity and fair compensation.

Keep an eye on them. Built to serve the MENA region with world-class tech, trust, and transparency, BurjX is poised to become the Coinbase of the Middle East.

Proud of the team, especially co-founders, Omar Abbas and Adam Ferris, for their relentless vision and grit. This is just the beginning.

In Dubai last week for the official launch of BurjX, a milestone years in the making. I had the privilege of playing a small role in its early journey, and seeing it come to life with full regulatory approval is nothing short of inspiring.
