Some good news on a bad day, and a reminder that we can win against corporate interests when we work together, and when we knock doors and make calls like it's our damn job. Congratulations to Kenya Gibson and her whole team.

Tonight the school board adopted a resolution to review our agreement with the city to maintain school grounds that was over a decade old! Does the next board think it's time for Schools Mowing Schools? 😎

This is a systemic problem that Democrats must address. The buyout of NGP/VAN by private equity is deeply concerning and must be investigated.

Gibson also floated the idea of having an outside investigation into what happened with the water. “I believe it’s time for us to do our work, which is to put the wheels in motion to ensure that this doesn’t happen again." richmonder.org/with-water-pro…

The Boil Water Advisory has been lifted. Please see the press release below from the Mayor's administration. Now, it's time to get to work and prioritize the basics. I'll need resident voice to make sure this gets done right. rva.gov/press-releases…

We need to make sure residents, regardless of immigration status, understand how and why this data can be used. It’s our job on City Council to make it clear and public what the policies are.

What specific social and housing programs would be affected by a $116M federal funding shortfall? Officials have not said. That's a big problem, says Kenya Gibson, because it leaves City Council in the dark as they review and approve the FY26 budget. richmond.com/news/local/gov…

I appreciate the Mayor being responsive to the my colleagues and my requests to publish FOIA requests. This library is a great start, and is exactly why my office is putting forward an ordinance requiring all future FOIAs be published on the city website rva.gov/mayors-office/…
