Virginia is back as America's Top State for Business in 2021 cnb.cx/3wBqQlr
Virginia is the best state in the best nation in the world—and we’re proud to once again be recognized by @CNBC as the best place in America to do business.
#Pride is a celebration of the movement that began as a protest 52 years ago at Stonewall—a fight for equality that continues today. This month, and every month, we are proud to stand with LGBTQ+ Virginians, allies, and advocates.
Join us tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. for our celebration of #ImmigrantHeritageMonth with @virginia_soc and the Office of New Americans. Hope to see you there! Register here: tinyurl.com/VAIHM2021

We did it, Virginia! 70% of adults have now received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine—and two weeks ahead of @POTUS' nationwide goal. Grateful to the millions of Virginians who rolled up their sleeves to get vaccinated. Let's all keep working to #VaccinateVirginia!
On #WorldRefugeeDay we honor the courage and resilience of the millions of refugees who have been forced to flee their homes to escape conflict or persecution. #WithRefugees Read @GovernorVA's proclamation here: governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/procl…
Commemorating Juneteenth at Town Point Park in Norfolk, Virginia. facebook.com/10890129127180…
It's past time we elevate Juneteenth in this nation—not just as a day that is commemorated by and for some, but one that is acknowledged and recognized by all of us. I'm proud to see the federal government follow Virginia’s example and make #Juneteenth a national holiday.
In honor of National #Immigrant Heritage Month, do your part to learn more about the history, heritage, contributions and stories of immigrant communities in America, and continue the pursuit of inclusive excellence in the Commonwealth and beyond. #CelebratingImmigrants #ODEI
Join us for "Our Journey to Juneteenth" on Friday, June 18, 2021 at 11 AM, as we honor the numerous contributions of Black and African Americans and learn more about the historical significance of Juneteenth.
Every Virginian deserves a world-class education, no matter who they are or where they're from. Today, I visited @marymountu to ceremonially sign legislation that will give all in-state eligible students access to state financial aid—regardless of their immigration status.
In Virginia, we are taking meaningful steps to address inequities in our criminal justice system and build a stronger, fairer, and more equitable Commonwealth for all.
The Equity Dashboards serve as a call to action in closing gaps and improving the health and well-being of all Virginians. Learn more at governor.virginia.gov/diversity/equi… #EquityDashboards
