Brandon Jarvis and Marques Jones interview Rachel as she describes her campaign and what inspired her to run for office
Rachel Levy, running as a Democrat for the House of Delegates in the conservative 55th District, "said the sign reflects a typical attitude “that if you’re not a conservative or don’t fall in line with their beliefs, then they say you’re not from here or that you don’t live here or that you don’t belong here.

“As a mother, teacher, and advocate, I run with my own children and family in mind and to improve the lives of ALL Virginia children and families. As a mother, I felt helpless when my child was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes six years ago, but then I realized there were legislative solutions. As a private citizen, I fought with other parent advocates for the passage of the insulin cap bill to lower and cap insulin prices at $50 dollars, and we were successful. But that was just a small drop in the bucket. There is so much more I can do,” said Rachel Levy, who is running for Virginia House of Delegates District 55.
