"Days after Virginians elected Democrats up and down the ballot, including Abigail Spanberger as the commonwealth's next governor, Lt. Gov.-elect Ghazala Hashmi unveiled a transition team that reflects the state's changing political and cultural landscape - one that's as diverse as it is deliberate. The group includes veteran legislators, local leaders, and advocates from across Virginia's political spectrum, notably Equality Virginia Executive Director Narissa Rahaman, whose inclusion underscores Hashmi's emphasis on equity and representation."
""I am honored to have this diverse group of leaders join our transition," Hashmi said in a statement Friday. "Their experience, perspective, and commitment to public service will help build an Office of the Lieutenant Governor that is responsive, innovative, and relentlessly focused on improving the lives of every Virginian." The 20-member team resembles a snapshot of Virginia's modern political landscape."
