@learnaboutsam Lear about this @JakeBurnsCBS6
Decriminalization YES. which @VaHouse @VASenate already did. @RalphNortham KNOWS this is harmful and is a poison for children. Commercialization NO. Decriminalization WE ALREADY DID. Last spring. Marijuana is NOT a harmless drug. It does NOT bring revenue.
youtube.com/channel/UC22hf… @JakeBurnsCBS6 @VASenateDems @VAHouseDems Tobacco companies have already obtained trade names.
You only showed the woman seeking to legalize this toxic damaging drug @JakeBurnsCBS6 Give equal time to public health issues.
#TerribleMcAwful wants to steal more from Virginia, but there's nothing left so he wants to poison our children & harm communities of color. YOU KNOW IT's HARMFUL. Your hypocritical oath says do no harm, so you push it 2 years out. What hypocrisy to claim it is "for children"
Here is what those concerned about public health (unlike Dr @RalphNortham ) have to say. Decriminalize YES You did that last spring. Same data used then argued now. Northam & McAuliffe are #PeopleOfTheLie @VAHouseDems @VASenateDems @VAHouseFloor
Who was that ill informed woman you showed? I want to educate her. There is widespread MIS-information about marijuana and its harm. Decriminalize IS correct, but don't commercialize.
Everywhere pot is legalized, youth start using it and the brain doesn't fully develop until mid 20s, and it absolutely causes brain damage when used in adolescence. Grandson of a friend did that and he has completely ruined his life. @JakeBurnsCBS6 You have a cute baby. Protect.
Hand rolled cigarettes a century ago did not get anyone addicted. Machine rolled cigarettes did. The same will happen with marijuana. It is addictive @VAHouseDems @VASenateDems
Because @POTUS plans financial aid for states, let that support help Virginia's fiscal needs, NOT POT. Marijuana is NOT harmless. Decriminalize YES (done last spring) don't commercialize. Don't poison our children. When fully legalized youth use rises @VAHouseDems @VASenateDems

@VAHouseDems @VASenateDems major cause of health disparities for African Americans is NOT racism. #FactsMatter Vitamin D deficiency (genetic) is most frequently cited factor in scientific literature. @NIH program All of Us is a major research effort to address this. #science
Dr.FrancisCollins, who led #HumanGenome project is PgmDirector It will discern genetic, environment, life style factors for 1 million Americans, all races, ample # AfrAm in study. Let #Science determine the answer on this. I am on the mailing list & will report findings.
Vitamin D is the big factor. AfrAms have different gene networks for D, not a vitamin, but a hormone that regulates immune response. Those catching #COVID19 also had low D levels as well. I have told many friends & #RVA about D, so have your friends& family all take D #Science

Quit pushing false narratives @CNNPolitics Health disparities r largely genetic. Studies to include all races & separate environment from genetic. Pain medications is not a disparity. @CNN is the worst promoting racial divisions. FredW had Dr Davis on.
You also keep pushing narrative that black & brown don't trust medical care. NOT when they have BOTH health insurance AND access to care. It's largely genetic & environmental other than ins & access. I have watched AfrAms flock to health centers for care when available. No fear.
I've worked in/around health care systems most of my life, professionally 30 years. No fear in African Americans IF they have insurance & access to health care. They go to get it! That is an old canard passed around in the press echo chambers which is no longer true. @CNNPolitics

@realDonaldTrump You can sign the funding bill. @MickMulvaney put restrictions into the CFR that expressly limit how federal funds can be spent by for profit, nonprofits & institutions, states and localities - only stated purposes, no slush funds.@senatemajldr @larry_kudlow
I know federal funding guidelines well. My read on @MickMulvaney act, an excellent streamlining of fed funding regs, is that they apply to all federal funding to states, localities, for/non profits. Specific FARS DFARS required in contracts. Get lawyers to check @larry_kudlow
These regs were contained in three separate funding documents at OMB. Mick put them into the CFR while streamlining regs @realDonaldTrump @larry_kudlow @MickMulvaney @senatemajldr I think that covers ANY non related/secondary expenditures of fed funds by state/local recipients.

@RTDMPW Your assertions about what Virginians taught, believed rely on inaccurate reports like the one on Virginia textbooks based on a magazine article written by nonVirginians about what they WANT to infer about this Commonwealth to gain some sense of power by disparaging VA
2 You viciously assert that Richmond & Virginians deny slavery, hide it. I am a witness to the history about which you & Wilson claim to know, have been in #RVA 5 decades. I need to describe an eye witness account of RVA history. Hatred is not just the purview of Trump MAGAhats
3. I had the 4th grade text, which showed 1619 events, including first Africans in VA shown bound together as they disembarked the ship atJamestown. No one glossed over the fact they were bound. Other assertions in that article are incorrect. People were called servants or family

The #BiggestLie Don't believe these @DonScott757 marijuana is NOT a harmless drug AND black communities suffer MOST #SocialJustice #FactsMatter @MercuryVirginia learnaboutsam.org/industry-profi…
Read these reports and view videos from those with the experience of legalization -In poor neighborhoods of Denver, there are pot shops for every 47 residents. #SocialJustice is NOT legalizing pot but decriminalize, as GA did last spring. @DonScott757
IN COLORADO, DRUGGED DRIVING WENT FROM KILLING ROUGHLY ONE PERSON EVERY 6.5 DAYS TO NOW EVERY 2.5 DAYS, SINCE LEGALIZATION WAS PASSED @DonScott757 @VirginiaMercury @GovernorVA @VAHouseDems @vahousegop @VASenateDems @VASenateGOP #RVA #FactsMatter

#Mnuchin "Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the Republicans are preparing to sabotage the country in order to gain political advantage from the destruction they cause." @tomfriedman @NicolleDWallace @SteveSchmidtSES @Forbes @WSJ @SenateDems @SpeakerPelosi @MarkWarner
Just to decode Thune’s remarks for you: “Spending” means cutting spending, “entitlement reform” means cuts to programs such as food stamps & Medicaid, and “growth & the economy” means hampering growth and sabotaging the economy. @SenateDems @johnthune @JoeBiden @WSJ @Forbes
By attacking America's economy, they take food off families’ tables, force cutbacks in state & local services, punish small businesses & create a vicious cycle of austerity & anemic recovery in the rest of the country, hoping Americans blame Biden for all of it. @SpeakerPelosi
