    Lily Franklin

  • Lily Franklin is the Democratic candidate for HD 41. She is a Virginia native, and she graduated from Northside High School. Franklin got her start in politics by working in Delegate Sam Rasoul’s legislative office, which led to her being promoted to chief of staff. Franklin wants to use her experience to uplift the issues of people living in rural areas.

    Franklin wants to invest in working families, which includes advocating for paid family and medical leave, paid sick leave, and affordable housing. She also wants to focus on mental health resources so that Virginians can get the help that they need. She believes that bureaucracy should not make accessing health care more difficult, especially when it comes to children and adolescents who need help.

    Franklin wants to combat the public education problems that she has recognized as an issue for years. She is a former Teach for America teacher, and she wants to use her experience to bring attention to issues within Virginia public schools. She believes that Virginia teachers are underpaid, and public schools are underfunded, which has led to dropout rates increasing, crime rates, and teacher availability.

    Franklin believes that healthcare should be accessible and affordable to everyone, and that no one should be at risk of bankruptcy due to illness. She also believes that abortion access should be protected, and that mental health services should be readily available to those who need it. In relation to the health of Virginians, Franklin helped pass legislation that would set a limit for contaminants and “forever chemicals” in water. She also supports legislation to combat climate change and public utility corruption that affects the health of Virginians.

    Chris Obenshain is the Republican candidate for this race. He is a lifelong conservative, and he was the Chairman of the UVA Chapter of the Federalist Society in law school. He served as a prosecutor. He does not support access to abortion or common sense measures to prevent gun violence. Obenshain would support allowing untrained parents to determine school curriculum instead of educational experts.

    Lily Franklin is the progressive choice for this race, as she supports affordable healthcare, investments in families, and increased school funding.
