Delegate Mark Downey, M.D.

Delegate Mark Downey, M.D. Dad, Doctor, and Delegate for Virginia's 69th District.

As I celebrate 24 years as a pediatrician, I’m grateful for the privilege of caring for children and families in the greater Williamsburg area. I work at Pediatric Associates of Williamsburg, part of CHKD, and when I’m not in the office, you’ll find me swimming, rowing, or volunteering with the Queens Lake swim team, Bruton High swim team, and Williamsburg Boat Club. A lifelong resident of the 69t

h District, I grew up in Queens Lake, attended local schools, and graduated as Valedictorian and Senior Class President from Bruton High in 1984. After earning a Chemical Engineering degree from UVA and working in the field, I found my calling in medicine, graduating as Valedictorian and Class President from MCV in Richmond. Since returning to Williamsburg in 2001, I’ve dedicated my life to my patients, my family, and my community. I’m blessed to share this journey with my wife Kristin, our four amazing children, and the neighbors who make Queens Lake such a special place. I’m passionate about making our community a thriving place for future generations, and I’m excited to serve the 69th District as a dedicated advocate and leader.

The annual House vs. Senate basketball game 🏀 took place on Monday! It was incredible to play on my alma mater's court and to support such a great cause. While the House did not prevail, I was proud to support the Massey Cancer Center.

Out of the 11 bills I have introduced this session, I am proud to have moved 6 through the House of Delegates and on to the Senate. For the next 30 days, we will keep fighting for this legislation as each bill works its way through the legislative process.

The clock is ticking - by March 13th, all legislation must pass both chambers to head to the Governor's desk.

Swipe to learn more about the legislation I have passed and stay tuned for updates as we work to push these bills across the finish line.

Happy Crossover! We have successfully made it through the first 30 days of session. I have enjoyed meeting all those who have stopped into the Richmond office to discuss legislation, programs, and concerns. We are looking forward to the next 30 days as our legislation begins to make its way through the VA Senate.

Happy Christmas Eve! As I saw my last patients before the Christmas break and prepared for the January transition, I was grateful to celebrate the season with the Historic Triangle and Newport News Democrats at their annual holiday parties. I hope you are enjoying the holidays and looking forward to meaningful time with friends and family.

I recently visited Laurel Lane Elementary and Denbigh High School for Take Your Legislator to Work Days! Public education is a public responsibility. I ran for Delegate to fully fund our neighborhood schools and ensure every student can live a healthier, happier, and more successful life. When I take the oath in January, I will hit the ground running for our students and keep my sneakers ready for any surprise gym class visits!
