RICHMOND, Va. — Freedom Virginia — a non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to building a Commonwealth where all families have the financial freedom to thrive — today announced it is endorsing Charlie Schmidt for the special election to replace Delegate Mike Jones in the Virginia House of Delegates District 77.
Freedom Virginia co-Executive Directors Rhena Hicks and Ryan O’Toole released the following statement:
“We are excited to endorse Charlie and his campaign. In both his personal and professional life, he has been dedicated to improving the lives of his neighbors in Richmond. He understands the stakes of this moment and why it’s so important to hold corporations accountable and support the middle class as we advance affordable housing, health care, child care, energy, and fair taxes. As a community activist, ACLU lawyer, and SEIU member, he has worked with people from all walks of life and has fought for their well-being. We are encouraged by his passion for affordability and look forward to working with him in the General Assembly to ensure all Virginians have the opportunity to thrive.”
