Basic fairness and equity are the foundation of our legislative agenda for this session. If we are going to move forward, we must take an honest look at our past. We know that racial discrimination is rooted in many of the laws that have governed our Commonwealth. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

If you believe in clean energy, if you want to see American manufacturing jobs right here in Virginia, jobs that will supply parts for offshore wind up and down the East Coast, then I ask you to pass this budget. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

We're leading by example. Last fall, we signed the country’s largest contract to buy renewable energy to power state government. We’re finally joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. We’re replacing old diesel school buses with new electric ones. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve seen how fragile our natural resources can be. I’ve seen over and over again how a clean environment and a strong economy go hand-in-hand. So we made this a priority from the beginning, and we have accomplished a lot, starting with combatting climate change. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to end the laws that restrict a woman’s right to direct her own health care. They’re not about health care—they're about injecting politics and the government into the relationship between a woman and her physician. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

Do you want more behavioral health care and community services? Do you want military service members and veterans to have better access to health care? This budget does that too. This is the right thing to do as we shape a Virginia that represents everyone. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

I ask you to pass the healthcare equity budget I sent you last month—Do you want to see new mothers get more home visits? Should new mothers get access to health care for a year after their baby is born? This budget does that. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

Her physical health improved. Her mental health improved. The fear is gone. She’s working. She’s learning new things, and she’s giving back. Her life has literally been transformed. She said, "I don’t have to just exist in this world anymore. Now, I have a chance to live.” #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

Then, three years ago, she got a place to live. A group called @vshousing helped her find it. They demonstrate that the best way to make sure people have a roof over their head is to put a roof over their head. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

It changes everything when you have a safe place to come home to every night. I saw that recently, when I met Karen Harris in Richmond. She had been without a place to live for more than 20 years. She told me, “It feels like there’s no hope. That no one cares.” #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

We’re also increasing funding for Virginia’s two public historically black colleges and universities. They play a critical role in training our workforce, and these funds will help bring them more in line with other universities. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

We are increasing funding to make public colleges more affordable. We are increasing the Tuition Assistance Grants that make private colleges more affordable. We’re making it easier for DREAMers to attend college and get ahead, with in-state tuition. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

I’m sending you a proposal to help people “Get Skilled, Get a Job, and Give Back.” We call it “G3.” If you need help, and if you choose to go into a high-demand field, and if you commit to community service, then Virginia will cover your tuition, fees, and books. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

We need to invest in our K-12 public schools—with teacher raises, more guidance counselors, and extra funds for high-need schools. An investment in public schools is an investment in students and our economy. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

But just because you have a job doesn’t always mean you can survive on it. The people who are building our economy should benefit from it too. The companies that recognize this will get ahead. So let’s work together to raise the minimum wage. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org

Our economic climate has brought Virginia one of the country’s lowest unemployment rates, at 2.6%. It’s rarely been this low in the technology era, and every region of Virginia is experiencing a lower unemployment rate than a year ago. #SOTC — PolitiTweet.org
