Pam and I are sending our best wishes to the President and First Lady, and to the more the 46,000 Americans—and 450 Virginians—also diagnosed with #COVID19 yesterday. This virus is very real and very serious. Let’s continue to take care of each other by doing the right things. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

I have proposed a moratorium on utility disconnections for the duration of the #COVID19 emergency, along with the funding to carry out these programs. The General Assembly is advancing it––and I am confident that together we will get this done for Virginia families. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

Today, I asked @VAStateCorpComm to extend the current ban on utility shutoffs through December 1––this will ensure Virginians can continue to access essential services during the pandemic, and give legislators the time they need to finish their work. https://t.co/EP1onMteBL — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

As I have been reminding Virginians throughout this crisis, #COVID19 is very real and very contagious. We are grateful for your thoughts and support, but the best thing you can do for us—and most importantly, for your fellow Virginians—is to take this virus seriously. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

Pam is experiencing mild symptoms, and I am asymptomatic. Per @VDHgov guidelines, we will isolate at home for 10 days and then reevaluate our symptoms. I am in constant contact with my cabinet and staff, and will continue working from the Executive Mansion. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

On Wednesday evening, @FirstLadyVA and I were notified that a member of our official residence staff had developed symptoms and tested positive for #COVID19. We both received PCR nasal swab tests yesterday and both tested positive. https://t.co/bwReZWQfsw — PolitiTweet.org

More than 200,000 Americans—including over 3,000 Virginians—have now died from #COVID19. We grieve for them, their families, loved ones, and communities. Our choices can prevent more grief and loss. Let's all continue doing our part to stop the spread of this devastating virus. — PolitiTweet.org

It is with the deepest sadness that Pam and I mourn the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. A brilliant legal mind and an unwavering beacon in the fight for equal justice, her loss leaves a tremendous void on the Supreme Court and in our country. May her memory be a blessing. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ralph Northam @VAGovernor73

This year, Virginia passed sweeping new laws to make voting more accessible—this is what removing barriers to the ballot box looks like. — PolitiTweet.org
