My statement on the funding deal to reopen government, protect federal employees, and vote to protect health care:
"I have long said that to earn my vote, we need to be on a path toward fixing Republicans’ health care mess and to protect the federal workforce. This deal guarantees a vote to extend Affordable Care Act premium tax credits, which Republicans weren’t willing to do. Lawmakers know their constituents expect them to vote for it, and if they don’t, they could very well be replaced at the ballot box by someone who will. This legislation will protect federal workers from baseless firings, reinstate those who have been wrongfully terminated during the shutdown, and ensure federal workers receive back pay, as required by a law I got passed in 2019. That’s a critical step that will help federal employees and all Americans who rely on government services. I’ll keep working towards a long-term government spending plan that includes critical priorities to support Virginians and funding for Virginia community projects."

Winsome Earle-Sears has consistently hit Abigail Spanberger on transgender issues. But a new poll from Christopher Newport University shows that voters say Spanberger would do a better job handling transgender policy by 13 points. #VAPol #VAGov

They say you shouldn't challenge the status quo. They say we should wait our turn. ​We disagree.

​We are looking for the scrappiest, most dedicated volunteers in the Commonwealth.

On the Capitol lawn in Richmond VA today.
The image shows a large government building with classical architectural features, including tall white columns and a triangular pediment. In front of the building, on a green grassy area, are large, free-standing letters that spell out "TAX THE RICH." Several people are gathered on the grass and around the letters, some appear to be holding signs, with the clear blue sky above them. The building has an American flag flying at the top of the pediment.

Ultimately, I think the biggest and most important takeaway from last night’s election in Virginia is this:

Ya Winsome, ya lose some!
