Today I was invited by @TheCIFva to talk immigration at the state level. But first, we heard from Capt Dean Lay from @FairfaxCountyPD about One Fairfax, an initiative to ensure county policies are inclusive, engender trust with LEA's, and eliminate racial disparity in impact.

We need to scale this initiative - very similar to the work done by the Commission on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion that I've served on for the past year - across the Commonwealth.

A big part of it is stopping our state tax dollars from being wasted on agencies like ICE, rejecting overcriminalization, and focusing on empowerment.
The fight to build a Virginia that welcomes and works for everyone takes *all* hands on *all* decks of this ship, from the district to the county to the Commonwealth to the nation.
Thank you @msfmary for the invite!
