Today we are highlighting Phil Hernandez, one of the three candidates we’re knocking on doors for in Virginia Beach from October 26 to October 30. Hernandez is running to represent his home, the city of Norfolk, in the newly created House District 94.
Hernandez has a long history of working for change. Currently, Hernandez is the Senior Vice President for Policy and Advocacy for The Commonwealth Institute, a nonprofit organization that fights to advance racial and economic justice. Previously, he served as a Senior Policy Analyst in President Obama’s White House Domestic Policy Council and worked as a civil rights attorney. Hernandez has helped pass laws in Virginia to “increase the minimum wage, lower taxes for families, and support local public schools”.
If elected, Hernandez vows to protect the fundamental right to vote and stand up against any efforts that create barriers to the ballot box. Thank you, Mr. Hernandez, for stepping up to run for the VA House of Delegates! We are looking forward to volunteering for you this month.
