"Proud that Barbara Johns will soon represent Virginia in the U.S. Capitol"

To put it mildly, this represents a massive upgrade from Robert E.

The only bad news here is that this change from Lee to Johns took so long, but it’s great to see nonetheless! Thanks to Rep. Donald McEachin (D-VA04), Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-VA10), and everyone else involved in making this happen!
P.S. See below for Gov. Northam’s press release.
