Another heartbreaking loss. Pam and I send our prayers to the family and loved ones of USCP Officer and Virginian Howard Liebengood. — PolitiTweet.org

I am ordering all U.S. and Virginia flags to be flown at half-staff on Monday, January 11 in honor of U.S. Capitol Police Officer and Fairfax County resident Brian D. Sicknick, who died as a result of injuries sustained while defending the U.S. Capitol. https://t.co/HJSkopumht — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

Thank you, Dr. Fauci for joining us yesterday to discuss the #COVID19 vaccines—and for being a consistent, trusted source of information throughout this pandemic. Watch our full conversation here: https://t.co/nq1rRhPNvR https://t.co/vX9n6DcUDG — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

Virginia has administered more than 148,000 doses of the #COVID19 vaccine in just over three weeks. For more information about vaccine priority groups in the Commonwealth or to contact your local health department, please visit https://t.co/1CUXZMOrhj. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

We expect ALL health districts will move to 1B by the end of January. Please be patient if your area is in 1A, or if you are having trouble signing up. This is the beginning of the process and demand is high. Remember, thousands of doses are arriving in Virginia every week. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

The following local health districts will gradually begin adding vaccination opportunities for people in Group 1B: - Alexandria - Arlington - Cumberland Plateau - Fairfax - Lenowisco - Lord Fairfax - Loudoun - Mount Rogers - New River - Prince William - Roanoke County/Alleghany — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

These health districts have made significant progress administering the vaccine to Group 1A, and will start vaccinating Virginians in Group 1B, which includes: ▪️ People aged 75 and older ▪️ Congregate settings ▪️ Frontline essential workers, teachers, and first responders — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

NEW: @VDHgov just announced that 11 health districts will begin vaccinating people in Group 1B starting the week of January 11. This is in line with my directive earlier this week to increase flexibility and accelerate the pace of vaccinations as quickly and safely as possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Businesses, homes, and communities across Virginia are leaving their holiday lights up through January 31 to show support for all that our health care heroes are doing to help end this pandemic. If you need a reason not to take down your decorations, keep your #LightsUp4Heroes. https://t.co/7kz3Fgk7MZ — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

I’ve now been working for over 24 hours to help Washington D.C. keep peace in the nation’s capital. In case it wasn’t already clear: the current President poses a danger to our country every minute he holds office. The sooner he is out, the better. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

I'm extending Virginia's National Guard deployment at least through Jan. 20, based on conversations this morning with our emergency teams and Washington D.C. Virginia state police also remain on the ground. We will be there until President-Elect Biden is officially sworn in. — PolitiTweet.org

Let me be clear: Virginia will be there for as long as it takes to protect our nation’s capital and ensure the peaceful transfer of power. Ready my full statement: https://t.co/Uad8PjVEaT — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

I continue to pray for the safety of every member of the House and Senate, all the staff, the journalists, everyone who works in the Capitol. And I commend the Virginia National Guard and Virginia State Police for quickly stepping up in this time of great need. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

This did not come about overnight. When elected leaders purposefully reject facts and fan the flames of conspiracy theories, all in pursuit of power, they are taking dangerous steps. Now we are seeing where those steps can lead. God forbid we experience anything worse. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

The President incited this mob with his refusal to accept the lawful results of a fair and secure election. And the members of Congress who have enabled him—and who continue to encourage and praise his efforts—bear just as much responsibility. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

I have been working all afternoon and evening with leaders in Washington DC, @VaNationalGuard, @VSPPIO, and others in the federal government. The violence we saw at the U.S. Capitol today was nothing short of an armed insurrection and a humiliating assault on American democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

At the request of @AlexandriaVAGov and @ArlingtonVA, I am declaring a 6PM to 6AM curfew in these jurisdictions, with limited exceptions. I am also issuing a State of Emergency in Virginia, so we can continue to respond. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

My team and I are working closely with @MayorBowser, @SpeakerPelosi, and @SenSchumer to respond to the situation in Washington, D.C. Per the Mayor's request, I am sending members of the Virginia National Guard along with 200 Virginia State Troopers. — PolitiTweet.org
