Our proposal for dedicated funding to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund is out of committee! On January 11 the whole council will vote. If you think every resident deserves to call RVA home without worrying about rent burden or homelessness, tell your councilor. This can’t wait. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite the pandemic, Richmond’s on the rise as a hub of innovation. Compared to last year, we’re gaining more tech workers than we’re losing, with some of the most favorable improvements in the country. With smart growth strategies we can keep this trend going. 📈 — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

With legalization on the horizon, we have to get intentional with our plans for the revenue. Here's what we need: First, we right past wrongs. Second, we build a better framework. Third, we make universal preschool a reality in our Commonwealth. Read my letter to @GovernorVA. https://t.co/QjOBDcJX4x — PolitiTweet.org

Mayors are on the frontlines of solving our growing transportation disparities. President-Elect Biden is right to put someone in charge who has the experience and background to get the job done at DOT. Congrats, @PeteButtigieg! — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

With Richmond 300’s unanimous passage, this city is embracing an equity- & sustainability-centered future, one informed by thousands of diverse, energetic resident voices. This guide for growth serves as our city’s new standard for community inclusion. Now, let’s grow! — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Councilmembers Kim Gray and Chris Hilbert for their public service to the City of Richmond. They deserve our respect and appreciation for their years of dedication to our residents. On behalf of a grateful city, thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

Tonight we’re a step closer to telling the full story of our city. #rvacouncil voted to allow us to bid to protect & commemorate the Burial Ground for Free People of Color and Slaves, a 19th century resting place to 22,000+ Black Richmonders. Learn more: https://t.co/OXudBSqlXi — PolitiTweet.org

Today, #rvacouncil votes whether to approve Richmond 300: A Guide for Growth. The residents of Richmond wrote this plan over the course of three years, and I couldn't be more grateful for your input.

On this 5th anniversary of the #ParisAgreement, the city joins over a 1,000 US leaders calling for a national mobilization on climate and recovery. By building a broad coalition with localities, the @JoeBiden administration can meaningfully #ActonClimate. https://t.co/xdLorrr8gx https://t.co/ClSxwp1f8T — PolitiTweet.org

This is an investment in the voices of Black, brown and Indigenous Richmonders too often silenced in our official historical and cultural narratives. It’s time to center those stories. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

Never has there been a more important year to celebrate the light in the darkness, the hope in the struggle, and the faith in our shared future. Happy Hanukkah to all to all who celebrate. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

Thank you @GovernorVA for highlighting the work of Emily, a nurse in Southwest VA, and the hundreds of healthcare workers we're blessed to have here in Richmond. Their message to us is simple: wear a mask, stay home, take this seriously. https://t.co/aqKeEeH3Bp — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

The Governor’s enhanced public health protocols are common sense steps to keep our city & Commonwealth safe during this latest surge. This community has worked too hard, sacrificed too much to let our guard down now. Stay safe, wear your mask & stay at home from midnight to 5 am. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

No matter how much we want the world to be back to normal, we’re not there yet. In fact, the numbers are worse than ever. We must make decisions accordingly. https://t.co/TsT25eJxdo — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

It was a pleasure to visit the new @Publix in Carytown this morning. My first job was in a grocery store. To me, they're centers of employment and community connection. Let's expand this partnership, @Publix, to make this good food and good service accessible citywide! https://t.co/NpCxsPhSM5 — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to our partnership with @mayorsforagi we’re already expanding the Richmond Resilience Initiative, our guaranteed income pilot designed to fight poverty & advocate for a living wage. This generous $500k donation will go straight to Richmond families over the next two years! https://t.co/bZMxZRShXi — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

The next round of small business support from the city is available starting today! Local businesses have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. We want to ease that burden by providing another $2M in grants. This money can go toward rent, wages, benefits, and more. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Levar M. Stoney @LevarStoney

Since 2017, we’ve progressed from a 42 to a 100 in LGBTQ+ protections, according to @HRC. For me, it’s about the progress behind the number. Through state advocacy and compassionate policymaking, we’ve made Richmond a safer and more welcoming city. That’s what it’s all about. — PolitiTweet.org
