Virginia State Sen. Danica Roem (D-30)
As a first-time candidate for office, Kamala Harris helped co-found the @EmergeAmerica network. She earned election as D.A., AG, U.S. Senator and VP. She’s now on the cusp of making history again. I’m grateful for the kindness she showed me and for stepping up to lead our nation. https://t.co/I4K1jbOMK8
