Thank you Gloria, Council member Dr. Wilder, and Vice Mayor Wright for your support of my campaign! Proud to have three strong community leaders from Lynchburg on Team Tom.

I hear young people every day in the office talk about fears they have for their safety & the safety of their classmates. And also the strategies that they’ve devised to keep each other safe. I respect the heck out of the fact that they’re raising their voices. cvillerightnow.com/news/208802-...

I believe that we will win 👏👏

Go time!!!! bluevirginia.us/2026/02/brea...

“…these moves may blunt some of the most damaging effects of Kennedy’s policies. Physicians can still recommend routine immunizations w/ confidence. & even as trust in federal guidance erodes, clinicians and families can turn to trusted medical institutions.” www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

👏👏👏

Let’s go💙

Does anyone know if Albemarle County has been doing anything for the students who depend on the schools for breakfast and lunch?

I’m just saying….we’re going to need a strategy other than wait for it to melt to get these kids back in school…

If this headline isn’t the perfect summary of the evil, incompetence and pure disdain for children shown by this administration not sure what is… www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-dil...

Today marks a major moment for child health: the AAP has released its updated 2026 childhood and adolescent immunization schedule.

“When a child witnesses violence or crime, it’s profoundly different from adults,” Dan said. “It leaves scars.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Good advice naomikritzer.com/2026/01/21/h...

Misinformation and rumors cause panic — Share facts only! Try to get the SALUTE information so the sighting can be verified. Not “I saw ICE south of town” but “at about 10am, I saw 4 men in uniforms (couldn’t see what kind) in 2 unmarked black SUVs getting gas at the Exxon on Route 20”

From my trusted friend & social worker @tahoeboulder.bsky.social “Please donate to this group. They are 14,000+ trained rapid responders who are showing up all over the twin cities to witness, observe, record, help community members with groceries, errands and other things…..

Dispacable isn’t strong enough…

Interesting and inspiring story from Tom’s trip through Southside on MLK day!

Let’s be clear about who’s paying the price for John McGuire and Congress’s vote against extending ACA premium subsidies: the middle class, small business owners, and the working poor. This was a gut punch, and it didn’t have to be.

“Danish health officials also questioned the U.S. following its lead.” www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

For the past three decades, kids in the UK got wild-type varicella unnecessarily. The costs of bad vaccine policy aren’t obvious but they are real.

Great and sobering article about what lies ahead…

An amazing organization…worth your consideration for a year end gift!!!

Cville folks - anyone up on how and where one can get Pearl Island these days? Used to be our NYE tradition to get takeout but I no longer know if that is possible!

This means the most!!!! Grateful for all the amazing work Indivisible has been doing and for their support of Tom!
