Here’s Dr. Roberts! A dentist from the Valley who provides free care to folks in need, and I’m bringing him to the State of the Union to highlight the devastating impact of health care cuts across Virginia.
Meet my SOTU guest, Dr. Cameron Roberts. Dr. Roberts is a dentist in Harrisonburg, and I asked him to come so we could help shine a light on the way recent cuts to Medicaid are creating challenges for charitable clinics that so many people rely on for care. youtu.be/ABBhQOk1oTo
I'm honored to deliver the annual reading of President George Washington’s Farewell Address tomorrow, and am interested in the likely contrast between Washington’s wise sentiments and the ones we’ll hear from President Trump during his State of the Union address. youtube.com/shorts/vSUzk...
Virginians are protecting our national security by building submarines that will be sold to Australia under the AUKUS agreement. Last week, I toured shipyards and met with local, state, and federal officials in Australia about the critical partnership between the U.S. and Australia.

My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on the General Assembly and Governor Abigail Spanberger’s approval of a new Virginia congressional map that now heads to Virginians for a referendum vote:
Donald Trump’s decision to prioritize redrawing voting maps across the country instead of focusing on lowering costs for families has created extraordinary circumstances for states like Virginia. There is now a temporary proposal aimed at preserving a fair playing field and protecting Virginia voters. While some states are moving ahead through partisan deals behind closed doors, Virginia is following its constitutional process and allowing voters to render the final judgment. We strongly support this effort and Virginia’s commitment to public transparency throughout the process.
My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on the National Transportation Safety Board’s final report into the January 2025 midair collision near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport that killed all 67 people aboard both aircraft:
We thank the NTSB for its thorough investigation of last year’s horrific crash near DCA that took the lives of 67 people, and for its recommendations on how to make the airspace around DCA safer. We owe it to the families who lost loved ones on January 29, 2025, and all Americans to implement the NTSB’s recommendations to prevent another tragedy. (1/2)
We’re pleased that the House is expected to vote on the Senate-passed ROTOR Act, which addresses some of the systemic failures that led to this crash. But that alone won’t be enough. The NTSB report underscores the risk unsustainable traffic levels at DCA pose—as we have warned for many years. In the coming months, we will be working on legislation to reduce slots at DCA and meet the NTSB’s other safety recommendations. (2/2)
This Black History Month and always, let’s celebrate the accomplishments of Black Virginians, including the creator of Black History Month, Carter G. Woodson. As the Trump Administration attempts to rewrite history, it’s more important than ever to tell these stories. youtube.com/shorts/WoLgl...
I was honored to attend commemorative ceremonies for those who died in the 1942 Darwin bombings, including 88 brave American servicemembers who fought valiantly on the USS Peary. May their sacrifices remind us of the depth of our alliance with Australia—and never be forgotten.

As Ramadan begins this evening, I want to wish Muslim communities in Virginia and around the world a blessed and meaningful month. I hope this time brings peace and prosperity to all observing. Ramadan Mubarak!
