Local resistance. That’s what will stop the cycle of reckless development in Virginia. I didn’t win my election, but there’s still a fight to be had. I’m in it with you, and for you.

An industry that fails to provide basic answers to basic questions has no business expanding data center business in Virginia. It’s time to hold Big Tech accountable.

I was 8 years during Columbine. I was also a 12 minute drive away. This was before lockdowns. Before active shooter drills. Nobody knew what to do yet. All I remember is police everywhere. I’m proud to be a gun sense candidate. There have to be limits. And some limits can't be up for negotiation.

VA01 Democratic candidate @votetimva.com announces his first endorsement: Chesterfield’s Clover Hill District Supervisor Jessica Schneider bluevirginia.us/2026/06/with... cc: @wittmanwatch.bsky.social
"Our first endorsement, and it means everything 🙌
Jessica Schneider of Chesterfield’s Clover Hill District is in our corner.
Supervisor Schneider didn’t come up through politics, she came up through service. Seven years volunteering in her community before she ever ran for office. Four years leading her neighborhood. A seat on the YMCA board. A therapy dog she brings to hospital patients every single week 💙.
She ran for office because her community was being ignored and nobody in power was listening. She fought back anyway. She won.
That’s the kind of leader who gets it. I could not be more thankful for this." - Tim Cywinski

You don't have to be part of a vulnerable community to fight with them. The one group I should have mentioned but didn’t, is people with disabilities. They know what it’s like to be ignored, overlooked, and discriminated against too. I refuse to be a rep who forgets about anyone. Dignity for all.

Some thoughts on the significance of this holiday.
A picture with a logo for Tim Cywinski for Congress and a description of why Tim believe Juneteenth is significant. It reads: REMEMBERING THE PROMISE OF JUNETEENTH
Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when the last enslaved people in Texas finally learned they were free. It was two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
It took another 156 years for it to become a federal holiday.
We are still waiting to see if this nation can deliver the equality promised on Juneteenth. And the progress gained, often paid for in blood, is under threat now.
Nobody's rights should wait on someone else's timing. And it's up to all of us to turn what was promised into what's real.
We celebrate this day to mark how far we've come. We remember its significance to remind us how far we have left to go.

Data centers are unpopular for good reason: they drink all our water, raise our electric bills, and pollute our communities. But don't worry. They also don't create long term jobs. Meanwhile in Virginia: give them a $1.9 billion tax break or we shut down the government.

Everyone's talking about affordability. Nobody's saying what it actually means. It's not complicated. You either put more money in people's pockets — or you bring prices down. That's it. Those are the only two options. Here's how I'd actually do both. 👇

Bipartisan collaboration is great. Coordinating and unity within our party is even better. But you have to start with a vision. Mine is dignity for all. No exceptions. I’ll fight like hell to get there — and yes, that includes going against my own party if I have to.

When fiscal policy in the United States values corporate greed more than hard work, the result is more income inequality and a social security system running dry. It’s time to flip the script. I appreciate the King William Dems for inviting me. I’ll see you again soon.

I didn’t run for office to play it safe or hide my beliefs. We don’t have to appear moderate to flip this seat. We have to be unafraid to listen, evens if to those we disagree with, and find common ground. That’s what representation looks like, and it’s something Wittman will never understand.

I met Lewis a handful of times. He’s a good man who unabashedly believed that a better future for the 1st is possible. He’s also kind. These are qualities of a man who embraces the true nature of public service. I know he won’t stop fighting. And we’re better off because of it.

Trump threatened to eliminate an entire civilization. Walking it back doesn’t erase that. It should matter to elected members of his party. But it doesn’t. They campaign on patriotism but refuse to stand up to a leader whose words put lives at risk. Their silence isn’t neutrality — it’s cowardice

You won't get typical talking points from me. Leaders should know issues enough so so we can answer any question. You might not always agree, but I’m not running for office so I could hide my beliefs. What you see is what you get. That's the standard we should come to expect from our politicians.

Every time Trump pushes the line, his party backs him up. No accountability. No guardrails. No spine. That’s how you end up with unchecked power. Not here. Vote YES on the redistricting referendum by April 21.
