- Virginia, You already know what day it is at the capitol🎊 Happy Birthday, Grandma✨️ @senlouiselucas.bluesky.bot
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)How much extra are you paying for health insurance now? Senate Republicans are doing nothing about your rising healthcare costs — while pretending they have a right to run Venezuela and extract their resources. Is that what you voted for? Stay focused on what Republicans are taking away from you.
- Virginia, We have a special election coming up this Tuesday, and if you're in House Distric 23 (Madam Secretary of the Commonwealth designee, Del. Candi Mundon-King former seat), please get out there and vote! Any who want to come out to support this canvas launch, let us know!
- Virginia, Reporting live here from Prince William, just before the sun set over the county, a dead party was spotted on PW Pkwy. If you're not from PWC or dont live here, you may not know this was the PWCGOP Headquarters for decades! I mean 30+ years, and they done flew the coop! 😂
- Y'all, I said this a few years ago that we would have Youngkin crying in his vest, and Im sure of it. Tonight, The People made their voices heard. It is what it is, and there is nothing you can do about it✨️ Dems are taking the maps by storm, in blue vests. Lol!
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)Black women don’t just show up, we shift outcomes. Today, we lead the way to the polls and make sure our voices echo in every corner of power. Vote. Lead. Repeat.
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)We’re proud to stand with our President, LaNoral Thomas, and @SEIUPres, as Black women leaders release a powerful open letter in support of Abigail Spanberger: “Protect What Sustains Us: Good Jobs, and Dignity” Read it here: www.seiuva.org/protect-what...
- That's right, Virginia! You see it. We have 7 more days until the People make their voices heard. Make your plan to vote!
- 🗓 7 days until Election Day. Now’s the time to make your plan and bring your people with you. Find your polling place, vote early, and let your voice be heard. Virginia: elections.virginia.gov North Carolina: ncsbe.gov #BWLC #VoteEarly #CollectivePower
- 🚨 As redistricting battles heat up nationwide, Virginia is once again at the center — and for the first time, a Black woman is leading the charge (SenLouiseLucas).💪🏾🗳️ I think we all know where the inevitable shenanigans will end up... In her trash can!
- You know Lucas women we go hard or go home! Let's go, Virginia!
- VA Senate President Pro Tempore @SenLouiseLucas says she's "taking notes" on a possible 10-1 Dem US House map in VA (which would mean that GOP Reps. Rob Wittman, Jen Kiggans, John McGure & Ben Cline would all be outta there, leaving just Morgan Griffith). bluevirginia.us/2025/10/ny-t...

- 20 years ago today (Oct 24, 2005), we lost Rosa Parks. Virginia, did you know that in 1957–58 she lived/worked as a hostess at Hampton Institute’s Holly Tree Inn—still organizing for justice. Her courage keeps us moving. #RosaParks #Virginia #CivilRights www.loc.gov/exhibitions/...
- Yes, Virginia! Our leaders are gathering to fight back! The attacks on Virginia and it's people will not stand!✨️

- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)As Bishop Leah D. Daughtry reminds us, this is bigger than politics, it’s about power, economics, and survival. Black women drive America’s progress, from the workforce to the ballot box.
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)As Dwana Franklin-Davis reminds us, leaving women of color out of leadership isn’t just exclusion, it’s lost innovation, progress, and possibility. At BWLC, we’re building the tables, shaping the policies, and leading the change our communities deserve. #BWLC
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)Host: As the government shutdown enters its 4th week, lines growing longer, tempers getting shorter. Staffing shortages are leading to longer wait times at security. Food pantries are stressed, with roughly 1.4 million federal employees furloughed, demand is on the rise
- Hey y'all! We only have a few short weeks left before we decide who our next Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General will be (and 100 seats in the House). So, if you live in Virginia, drop a line or two in the comments, and tell me your why (voting). Wishing you all an amazing day!
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)Virginia and North Carolina voters, your rights matter. ID rules and accessibility options look different in each state. Swipe to know what applies to you and make sure your ballot counts.

- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)If you watch one thing today, make it this. These workers are risking their lives to build our cities and getting paid like their time, safety, and dignity don’t matter. They deserve fair pay. They deserve respect.

- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)Don't be distracted by Trump's Iran rhetoric; the real threat is his plan to dismantle Medicaid, and use the funds to pay for tax breaks for billionaires #DontBombMedicaid
- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)This is just wrong on so many levels Instead of preparing for possible terrorist attacks after the Trump administration bombed Iran The Department of Homeland Security is brutally beating and detaining a laborer who's the father of 3 US Marines Can we at least pause the fascism while we're at war

- Reposted by Natalie Louise Lucas (Shorter)Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now! They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.
- #NoKings at all...ever! We handled this already.
