Thank you to the Newport News School Board for recognizing the winner of my Congressional App Challenge during your meeting. The App Challenge continues to be an important showcase for young people in my district and districts around the country
Earlier tonight, I hosted a Know-Your-Rights panel to outline everyone’s rights when interacting with ICE or DHS officers. We all have constitutional rights that must not be violated. ICE must be reined in and the Trump Administration must be held accountable.
I had an insightful tour earlier today of the Peake Childhood Center’s Newport News Early Childhood Development Center. Executive Director Jennifer Parish, Ed.D. updated me on the partnership with VA Peninsula Community College to address the shortage of Early Childhood educators
I join the rest of the nation as we collectively mourn the passing of civil rights leader, Rev. Jesse Jackson. He showed what was possible for this nation as he inspired countless others to fight for a future in which America lived up to its foundational promises of equality and justice for all.
BREAKING: Rev. Jesse Jackson, civil rights icon and two-time presidential candidate, dies at 84.
I attended the City of Hampton Citizen’s Unity Commission 2026 Unity Awards Ceremony, where individuals and organizations received recognition for their efforts to make the City of Hampton more inclusive
Hampton Roads is on the frontline of climate change. Our region's future relies on addressing it now. This decision by President Trump is reckless and serves to help corporate polluters at the expense of American families.
Breaking news: The EPA rescinded a landmark legal opinion underpinning a wave of federal policies aimed at climate change. In scrapping the policy, the EPA will seek to erase limits on emissions from cars, power plants and other industries.
I’m proud to call Lee a friend and to have worked alongside him to advocate for workers and build a stronger labor movement.   His commitment to organizing, solidarity, and protecting workers’ voices leaves a legacy that will continue to guide and inspire us in the years ahead.
After 14 Years at the helm, AFSCME President Lee Saunders will retire in August 2026 following a historic tenure. Pres. Saunders energized AFSCME's activist culture and will leave it on strong footing for the future. www.afscme.org/press/releas...
HAPPENING NOW: Ranking Member @BobbyScott is hosting an event with education experts about the impact of the Trump Administration's dismantling of the Department of Education on students. Follow along here ⤵️ www.youtube.com/live/QpJRmUW...
Bill also served as Chairman of the Arlington County Board before being appointed to the 17th Judicial Circuit Court, where he also served as Chief Judge. My condolences to his family and those who were impacted by him.
I was saddened to hear of the passing of the Honorable William T. Newman, Jr. Not only was Bill a great attorney, he also was the first African American to be elected to the Arlington County Board since Reconstruction.
Thank you to the Rev. Dr. Veronica Coleman and the congregation at New Jerusalem Ministries for inviting me and Delegate Alex Askew to participate in their Black History Month Program “Preserving the Past, Foundations for the Future” today
