Holds office U.S. House District 11

Comments

"Republicans killed a bill which would've created the first legal, taxed, and regulated recreational marijuana market in the South, despite years of Democrat led work, overwhelming public support, and the continued human and financial costs of the racist war on drugs. Shame." (02/28/22)

"The Virginia General Assembly just voted to finalize the legalization of marijuana, making us the first former Confederate state to do so. Last month, we became the first state in the South to abolish the death penalty. Don't let anybody tell you progress isn't possible." (04/07/21)

"Reversing the harm caused by the war on drugs is among the defining civil rights issues of our time. Today I proudly cast my vote for the #MOREAct to decriminalize marijuana at the federal level." (12/04/20)
