Thank You

Tommy's Signature

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your support, energy, and belief in this campaign. Although we fell short this time, I am deeply moved by the dedication so many of you have shown, and I am inspired by what we built together.

This campaign was never just about winning—it was about advocating for the issues that matter most to Norfolk. From quality public education and public safety to affordable housing and a resilient local economy, I remain fully committed to these priorities. Every conversation we had with residents, every volunteer who knocked on doors, and every one of you who shared our vision was part of a movement to make Norfolk a better place for everyone.

Though this chapter has closed, our journey to bring change to Norfolk is far from over. I’m still here, ready to work on behalf of our shared values and vision for our city, and there are many ways we can continue moving forward together.

This campaign was hard fought and that costs money of course. If you’re able, I’d be grateful for any contribution to help us cover those costs as well as maintain momentum and prepare for what lies ahead.

Make a Contribution Today!

Thank you again for your trust, support, and commitment to this city. Together we will build a better Norfolk for a brighter future.

With all my gratitude,
