RK Dinner Announcement - Congressman James Walkinshaw and Tulsa Mayor Monroe Nichols

Congressman James Walkinshaw and Tulsa Mayor Monroe Nichols

🚨 Just Announced: Two bold Democratic leaders are joining us for the Roosevelt-Kennedy Dinner on Saturday, October 4 in Charleston!

🗳️ Congressman James Walkinshaw – newly elected to represent Virginia’s 11th District, Walkinshaw brings deep experience in federal policy and a strong record on clean energy, women’s safety, and defending civil servants. A former Fairfax County Supervisor and longtime chief of staff to Rep. Gerry Connolly, he’s hit the ground running in Congress.

🌆 Tulsa Mayor Monroe Nichols – the first Black mayor in Tulsa’s history and a rising force in Southern leadership. A former state legislator, Nichols is confronting the city’s past and present head-on—launching a $100 million Greenwood Trust to repair the legacy of the 1921 Race Massacre, expanding affordable housing, investing in schools, and forging stronger partnerships with tribal nations.
