Sen. Mark Warner Reflects on MLK Jr. and His Philosophy of Non-violence

Did you know that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. came to Danville in 1963? There, he spoke at a luncheon at High Street Baptist Church, where he condemned the "brutality and viciousness" of the Danville police force at the time.

Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) recently reflected on the impact of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

“[He] kept to that truth that nonviolence can overcome hatred—and boy, oh boy, we need that message in our country right now,” Warner said.

Tech lobbying is putting Virginia’s kids at risk

Did you know that a big tech-backed data center group called the Data Center Coalition—whose members include Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Google—formed a political action committee last year, then donated $165,500 to a bipartisan group of Virginia lawmakers... ahead of a legislative session focused on regulation? Yeah.
If this rubs you the wrong way, here are two things you can do about it:

-Use the Virginia Register of Regulations or the Virginia Regulatory Town Hall website to track proposed regulations and submit public comments.

-Use the Virginia Public Access Project and Transparency USA to see which lawmakers receive donations from tech companies and related PACs.
