“There is so much enthusiasm around this campaign,” says Rashid, the Democratic candidate for Congress in the First District. “I’m very grateful that my former law professor, Sen. Kaine, and my friends Secretary Castro, Del. Carroll Foy and Gaye Adegbalola will be joining our outstanding team of volunteers and organizers during our Day of Action.

“We have roughly 30 days to get out the vote, and I’m well aware that the greatest resource we have at this point is time. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for everyone who is dedicating time and energy into this campaign, let’s work together and win this.”
