Mayor Phillip Jones

Thank you to @VP Harris for visiting us at our @NewportAirport. I was proud to welcome her on the tarmac as she started her first tour of the Fight For Our Freedoms College Tour at @_HamptonU. Onward! - PDJ Photos: @CityofNN

“‘We Don’t Need More Lawyers in Congress’: The Future of the Democratic Party Is Emerging” @Lis_Smith on @MajorityDems / @ElectTheBench candidates building the future of the Democratic Party:

I talked with @nytopinion about what it will actually take for Dems to win in 2026 and rebuild the party’s brand for the long term. 🧵 (1/8)

Dems need to show that if voters give them back power, they will deliver results - starting with lowering costs. In VA, two @MajorityDems members - @GovernorVA Spanberger and @SpeakerDonScott - teamed up to make meaningful progress in the first 2 months of the Spanberger admin.

🎥 Watch: The City of Newport News is tackling neglected properties, unsafe structures, and ongoing property-maintenance concerns with smart new technology to support cleaner, safer, and more welcoming neighborhoods. @MayorPhilJones spoke with @13NewsNow to share how the Good Neighbor Patrol Vehicle is the result of Newport News city leaders listening to residents and delivering real solutions. Questions? Check the Good Neighbor Patrol Vehicle FAQ: nnva.gov/3146/Cleaner-S… or call the 311 Customer Contact Center at 757-933-2311.

NYT: Every Democratic candidate can learn from Paige Cognetti’s anticorruption moxie, a dose of which could help a Democratic Party struggling to regain the public’s trust. THIS is how Dems win back back the ground we've lost (and more?)

Proud to be a @MajorityDems. If we hope to win the fight against Donald Trump, we need to show people we can deliver. We’ve started to do that in San Jose. And I plan to take the approach statewide come November.

Keeping the entire Old Dominion community in our hearts and minds. #ODUStrong

I’m keeping Lt. Col. Brandon Shah’s family, friends, colleagues, cadets, and the whole ODU family in my prayers tonight. May his memory be a blessing. wtkr.com/news/in-the-co…

My heart is with the Old Dominion community today. No student should fear for their safety on campus, and no Virginian should feel unsafe in their own community. We must confront the reality of gun violence and work together to ensure our schools and neighborhoods are places of safety, not fear.

Across the country, Americans are taking action to reject the chaos this President is causing. In their communities. At the ballot box. We are writing a new, more hopeful story for America.

Abigail Spanberger just showed us what an address to the nation should sound like. Everyone needs to watch this.
