Former governors
Thank you for helping my administration achieve key goals since I took office, including raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour.
While (the One Big Beautiful Bill) passed Congress along partisan lines, the hurt it will cause to hardworking Virginians, young families, rural health clinics, safety net hospitals and ultimately, Virginia’s economy knows no party.
In the wake of (the Department of Government Efficiency’s) slashing of our federal workforce, Virginia continued to lose jobs in FY26.
I think you two gentlemen have laid out a plan that addresses the fundamental weakness of our current farm policy.
American farmers have done exactly what we asked them to do.
It’s very direct, and I think it speaks significantly and centrally to the challenges that many Iowa farmers face today.
We will not let them bully my fellow Pennsylvanians. If these companies want to do business here they need to comply with the strictest guardrails in the nation on data center development.
My message to data center developers is clear: if you can’t agree to our strict requirements and get the community where you want to build to say ‘yes,’ you’re not going to have the Commonwealth’s support either.
Over the past year, I’ve listened to the people of Pennsylvania — and I’ve heard directly from many residents across our Commonwealth who are concerned about what data center development could mean for our communities, our environment, and…
Pennsylvanians are rising up and using their power to combat the chaos, cruelty, and corruption — and we’re not slowing down.
You might very well save money on the insurance side of it.
I’m already looking into it. That’s how it has to be corrected, a constitutional amendment.
Your energy plan is going to cost us money, your housing plan is a house of cards, and you keep disparaging the state at every chance you get. You’re a job killer.
I understand this area significantly better than my opponent. There’s no way she could even come close.
Walsh is one of the best bridge builders in the country.
We’re just wanting you to know what’s happening here.
We wanted to make sure people feel as though this is a point to be very involved, and understanding what’s happening.
That stands in contrast to the Trump administration and Republicans, whose only interest has been in trying to use this issue for political gain.
I said we would conduct a thorough, complete, and fair investigation, and that is exactly what we are doing. Because that is what accountable government looks like.
By bringing together our first responders, state agencies, businesses, and community partners, we are ensuring Virginia is fully equipped to anticipate, respond to, and recover from any threat.
