Raised in the Roanoke Valley in a working-class family, Lily Franklin knows the challenges rural communities face — from underfunded schools to environmental injustice. After teaching in low-income Appalachian schools, she returned home to help pass legislation that benefits working families.
Now, she’s taking on the corporations polluting our water and farmland; fighting to shut down pipelines, invest in clean energy, and protect the communities she calls home.
Lily's is a super competitive race, and we know that because when Lily ran in 2023, she lost by a TINY. That means support from JanePAC's community can be the difference.
