Former Governor of Virginia

“I am proud to support Levar Stoney to serve as Virginia’s next Lt. Governor. As the first Black Secretary of the Commonwealth and youngest elected Mayor in Richmond history, Levar is no stranger to rolling up his sleeves and tackling issues that help uplift all Virginians. With a deep understanding of all 133 of Virginia’s localities, Levar is the best candidate to hit the ground running as Lt. Governor to deliver on the values that make our Commonwealth the best place to live and raise a family."

Former Virginia First Lady and Secretary of Education

“As fellow cabinet secretaries serving together in Governor McAuliffe's administration, I've seen firsthand Levar's commitment to bettering the lives of all Virginians. In the Cabinet, Levar was a champion for second chances, overseeing unprecedented increases in restoring voting rights of Virginians. Levar was a terrific partner to me in appointing strong public servants to Virginia's universities and other education boards. I am proud of the work Levar has done to help build a thriving Richmond, and now he'll take that same energy to serving all of Virginia as your next Lt. Governor”

“Levar Stoney embodies the values of integrity, inclusion, and unwavering commitment to public service. His vision for Virginia is one where every community is valued, and every individual has the opportunity to have a fair shot at success. Levar has dedicated his life to lifting up every corner of our Commonwealth, and I know he'll continue to fight for all Virginia's most vulnerable communities as Virginia's next Lieutenant Governor. His leadership during times of crisis- whether responding to the COVID-19 pandemic or advancing racial and economic justice-- proves his courage to tackle the most pressing challenges head-on. I am proud to support Levar Stoney as the next Lieutenant Governor of Virginia because I know he will continue to lead with compassion strength, and an unshakeable dedication to progress for all.”

"I’m proud to support Mayor Stoney to serve as Virginia’s next Lt. Governor. As Mayor, he delivered for his residents.
