Partisan gerrymandering must be replaced by independent commissions composed of citizens, not lawmakers. Elections should belong to the people - not to whichever party controls the statehouse.

"I am here to endorse fairness and reality" - Matthew McConaughey
The question isn’t whether we can risk voting for an Independent, it’s whether we can risk two more years of the usual Republican - Democrat finger pointing game. Our problems need solutions now, not more business as usual. This video explains that voting for an Independent isn't a "thrown away" vote. It's a fair fight for all people running.

It has been a very busy start to the week! Monday evening, I had the pleasure of addressing the NAACP Newport News Political Forum and speak with local Newport News residents afterwards. I then took part in the National Coalition of 100 Black Women’s Candidate Forum on Tuesday, along with fellow candidates for VA-03 Rep. Bobby Scott and Ms. Makiba Gaines. We had a long line of citizen questions, it was nice to hear your concerns and answer your questions! Follow me to see what I get up to on the rest of the campaign trail!

I spent Sunday afternoon at the Stockley Gardens Arts Festivals, after Saturday’s high water had receded. Crossed paths with several leaders from the Norfolk Schools community and got a chance to discuss the challenges facing the district. I support the 1% sales tax on the upcoming ballot to help local school districts address their building and maintenance backlogs and give our students a safe, modern, and engaging environment.

You don’t often get to combine wonderful music with a really worthy cause. I got to attend HELP Inc’s annual Concert for Hope and Health, to support their awe-inspiring efforts to provide shelter, healthcare, and support services to residents of Hampton and Newport News. www.helphampton.org

On Saturday, I had the pleasure of meeting several local business owners at the Selden Market in Norfolk. Supporting these businesses is vital to our community. It helps build our economy up and support local citizens in Hampton Roads and Norfolk. Thank you to @norfolkcandle and @cookingwithgreens for taking the time to speak with me! Your work and contributions to our community do not go unnoticed. Check them out whenever you're in the area!

More good meet ups around town. Civic league meetings across the region and events like Oktoberfest in Portsmouth, the Virginia Queer Film Festival at ODU, the Salvation Army's Kroctoberfest, the Virginia Children's Festival, and Stand Up Peninsula's Civic Day of Engagement are giving me the chance to hear what's on voters' minds, straight from the source. No matter the group, it's pretty hard to find anyone who's happy with the way things are.

Local is where the action is. I got the opportunity to attend and speak at the East Ocean View Civic League last night, where I learned what is top of mind for citizens in this part of Norfolk and then talked about why I am running, followed by lots of good discussions. Groups like this and their local government counterparts are where the rubber meets the road and I'll be attending many more in the coming weeks.

Hampton Roads is the region of the country most affected by the changing climate. Last week’s nor’easter showed us yet again that we need to be working on this NOW, and not let the deniers slow us down. There is no avoiding it - every single city in Hampton Roads is facing increased flooding, beach erosion, and more. We need to act now and act together.

Connection and learning with the Urban League of Hampton Roads Young Professionals group. Its five pillars are Financial Wellness, Education, Employment, Health, and Housing - fantastic prescriptions for a successful life and a successful community.

So many Americans and Virginians are being held back by America’s housing shortage. We need to add more housing units as quickly as possible and stop policies that hurt the housing work force and limit construction. Cities and localities have to tackle the problems strategically like Newport News is.

Independents are going to make history in 2026!
At least 7 candidates from across the country are ahead, tied, or within 5 points of their opponent and gaining.
Got to meet with all of them and hundreds of supporters at the exciting Independent National Convention in DC this week.

The young people in Hampton Roads should not have to worry about the cost-of-living, rising costs of everyday essentials, and how this all affects their future.
Watching kids struggle and settle for less than they deserve because of the costs, fuels me to change this economy. These young adults are our future, they deserve to have safe places to live, and not settle for less.
For more information on where I stand and how I plan to make changes, please visit https://www.stevewoll.com

Last Thursdsay, I attended the redevelopment plan to the community for Fort Mchenry. Which is a 500 acre historical site/former army fort that is in the middle of the district and which is being redeveloped.
I learned a lot of what their plans were and how the redevelopment would still honor this historical site.
I had a great time meeting people and learning more about this plan which could create more revenue and a center of gravity in our community.

I had a great time at the Neptune Shield SEAL Tank business pitch competition last night in Virginia Beach, featuring exciting new companies from across Hampton Roads and in fact across the country!

It was great to reconnect with startup leaders like Tim Ryan and Zack Miller from Innovate Hampton Roads (@innovate_757), who I have known for years. Even more exciting, I met other folks helping foster small businesses in the region, including Donna Norman from the Hampton Roads Small Business Development Center (@hamptonroadssbdc) and Tonya Fentress from the Slover Library (@thesloverstrategist), who helps harness the Slover's significant capabilities for small businesses.

Small businesses create the majority of new jobs in the U.S. and are a path to the financial stability and success that so many Americans feel is out of reach. I'm going to fight to tackle cost of living challenges for our citizens and to help small businesses any way we can. For more information, please visit https://www.stevewoll.com to learn about my goals and strategies.

Did you know that forty percent of this region's economy runs through the shipyards and the bases? That should be priority one in Washington, not an afterthought. I've met you all who contribute to our great district. You deserve to be recognized for all you do. I will make sure that happens.
