Since Jan. 2025, City Council President @CynthiaNewbille has ignored dozens of questions on tax rates, personnel decisions, free speech issues, code violations & more.
Her silence is "very unusual" and puts Council at a "disadvantage," Bob Holsworth says.

There remains an active lawsuit to force enforcement of ethics laws against Winsome Earle Sears. Jay Jones' office is representing her just as Miyares' office did. Virginia pols in power tend to protect each other, regardless of political party.
Seems like a good opportunity for reform-minded Virginia legislators to introduce legislation /rule changes that plug these gaps. And for GOP members who want to force the Dem majority to kill etics reform legislation.
ALT Screenshot of a tweet by Graham Moomaw (@gmoo...). The tweet reads: "Virginia made some ethics reform moves after the McDonnell scandal, but it's mostly still just an honor system. No one really checks the forms legislators file to disclose their personal business interests. And conflict-of-interest rules are basically non-existent."

The crime commission just said since Oct there have been 207,578 marijuana cases across Virbinia sealed not including Fairfax!
Great work to so many who made this possible! And congrats to those w sealed records!
Now that we're talking about equitable distribution of cannabis licenses, who wants to revisit that actual conversation from a couple years ago?
2022 @MinCannBusAssoc report: advantages barriers to entry create significant inequities & perpetuate oligopolies in state adult-use cannabis markets: The advantages include automatic co-location of an adult-use license w medical licenses, early market access, opt-out & land use.
Trunp indicted a black woman who is an attorney and sitting state senator, charismatic and media savvy who famously owns and operates a licensed cannabis dispensary for selling weed. I'm sure this is going to go how they think.

There's a pervasive mentality in govt that the proper protocol is to say nothing when public employees are accused of wrongdoing.
You don't often see it applied to allegations of sexual misconduct. But here it is
Amid more allegations of sexual misconduct by another employee of the @VibrantRRHA, CEO Nesmith tells me all of the details are "confidential" and can't be discussed.
He also declined to comment on eviction proceedings against one of the alleged victims.

The core duty of any board is keeping the organization legally compliant and out of court. The RRHA board is dropping the ball on this basic responsibility.
Richmond City Council needs to remove board members who fail to protect the public's trust.
