There's not a vertical chain of command structure. by Elaine Luria

There's not a vertical chain of command structure.

We need leaders who will bring us together instead of driving us apart. While it was proper for Governor Northam to apologize, there is no excuse for this type of photograph then or now, unfortunately, the existence of this photograph does not bring us together. I ask Governor Northam to resign. This isn't about Big League Politics, this is about what is right and wrong.

Such conduct is unacceptable for any Virginian — whether occurring in the past, present, or future, governor Northam must resign and fully acknowledge the painful past these images evoke. Bigotry has no place in Virginia.

The president's comment that lawmakers visiting Afghanistan is a 'public relations event' is an insult to the brave men and women serving in harm's way.
