NO KINGS. See you Saturday at 12:30 next to Turner Pavilion in downtown Harrisonburg www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

ICYMI: Governor Spanberger voted YES to level the playing field and push back against Donald Trump. Join the Governor in the fight for democracy — by voting YES by April 21.

Democrats - and now members of the Republican leadership - have attempted to fund TSA and most of DHS only to continuously be blocked by President Trump. Let’s be clear: Trump is responsible for the DHS shutdown.

What will your No Kings protest sign say, for the event in Harrisonburg on March 28? Here's mine from last time! -Renee www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

This is now the largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market, according to the IEA. All because Trump chose war, and the GOP Congress refused to stop him.

Next Saturday!

"We can restore fairness with an amendment that gives Virginians the power to level the playing field" youtu.be/6_nOYHXT5TI?... video by @fairelectionsva.bsky.social Vote YES on Redistricting Vote early at the Rockingham County Administration Building www.rockinghamcountyva.gov/179/Election...

Reminder that Democrats offered to fund the TSA separately so their operations could continue and agents could be paid, and GOP refused. Rs want ICE to continue without restrictions. Now Trump is expanding what ICE can do. We need checks and balances again in Congress! bsky.app/profile/atru...

"Virginia likely will become the second state to pass a law encouraging plug-in solar. Both chambers in Virginia's legislature passed a bill, and Gov. Abigail Spanberger is expected to sign it."

Next Saturday!

Tonight!

Some local groups are protesting the war on Iran TOMORROW at 6pm in Court Square, Harrisonburg

In Republican-led states, their GOP leadership is making these decisions that affect the whole country. In Virginia, it's up to us voters (and our redistricting would be temporary, and tied to what other states do, to responsively level the playing field). Vote YES by April 21!

"On Saturday, the Senate rejected a motion by Democrats to take up legislation to reopen TSA and pay workers who are now going without paychecks. Republicans argue that they need to fund all parts of the DHS, not just certain ones."

See you next weekend!

Trump just lifted oil sanctions on Iran to buy up to $14 billion of it, right as Iran bombs our troops and allies and gas prices skyrocket. To literally fuel Iran’s military and terror machine - at the same time America wages war to destroy it - is the definition of insanity.

Shamefully, the White House has been posting videos that combine real footage of the Iran war with clips from movies and video games. Pope Leo urged journalists to show the real face of war through the eyes of the victims. Trump’s disrespect for our servicemen and women is beyond the pale.

Trump used photos from a Dignified Transfer ceremony (where he's also wearing a baseball hat from his MAGA store) for his own fundraising. He doesn't respect our troops or their families. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/u...

Democrats have offered to pay the salaries — fully fund, no conditions — for TSA. It’s Republicans who keep blocking that.

"I voted yes today, and I would encourage other Virginians to do the same." -Gov Spanberger

Hegseth's Pentagon wants $200 BILLION to continue Trump's war in Iran. The GOP keeps voting not to restrict Trump's war powers. The goals for this war haven't even been clearly articulated! The GOP has made Congress ineffective as a check on the President's power and usage of our taxpayer money

The SAVE Act isn’t saving anyone. It’s a regressive, backwards bill that threatens to disenfranchise millions. I’m voting NO.

Early voting on the redistricting referendum is open now! Vote YES at the Rockingham County Administration Building, 20 East Gay Street, Harrisonburg. Curbside voting is also available there for folks with disabilities.

More on those deceiving mailers, and on voting YES in the redistricting referendum going on now. www.instagram.com/reel/DWCLGda... You can help push back on the Trump GOP efforts to unfairly keep power in Congress! In Virginia, it's up to the voters, not a dictator wannabe.

The DNI's responses in this video make it very clear that the Trump administration is not making Americans safer. Thank you for this line of questioning, @ossoff.senate.gov.

Gas prices are rising in Virginia, and we're feeling it here in Rockingham. Insights from GasBuddy.com

Factories continue to shed workers, with 98,000 manufacturing jobs lost during the president's first full 12 months back in the White House. https://to.pbs.org/3NwD8dl

Many economists expect the Fed will forecast that inflation will remain as high as 3% even by late 2026. An increase of that magnitude could be hard to square with more interest-rate cuts. https://to.pbs.org/4slVFZ5

SAVE act doesn't just require ID, it requires proof of citizenship (incl docs tracking name changes if your birth certificate is your proof of citizenship), adds penalties for people registering voters, requires copies of ID with mail-in ballots & forces states to send our data to a federal database

Trump’s own director of the National Counterterrorism Center is jumping ship because he cannot support the U.S.’s military actions in Iran. Democrats and some Republicans agree that there was no imminent threat to the U.S. when Trump entered into this war of choice.

Good info on how the latest bills coming out of our Democratic-led legislature address housing affordability, eviction, and zoning concerns:

See our recent past posts for more info about the redistricting referendum. Early voting is going on now! Send in your mail-in ballots if you received them, so they arrive ahead of election day to be sure they're counted!

Here it is, straight from the horse’s mouth: the American public is the last of the Trump Administration’s concerns.
