The Roadless Rule has been an amazing success story—protecting 45 million acres of national lands nationwide, including 400,000 acres in Virginia. I will keep pushing for legislation to codify the rule and safeguard other wilderness areas in the Commonwealth.

As we prepare to celebrate Religious Freedom Day later this week, here is a painful reminder of how far we have to go. Let’s stand with our Jewish friends and all in our nation who are targeted for their religious beliefs. mississippitoday.org/2026/01/10/f...
Predawn fire reduces parts of Mississippi's largest synagogue to charred ruins - Mississippi Today
A fire heavily damaged Jackson’s only synagogue before dawn Saturday – the same house of worship that was firebombed by the Ku Klux Klan in 1967 because the rabbi had been an advocate for civil rights...

Vaccines have saved countless lives from preventable diseases. Fanning the flames of vaccine conspiracy theories and recklessly changing vaccine guidance threatens the health and safety of millions of children. www.wusa9.com/article/news...
CDC's new vaccine guidance faces backlash from pediatricians as 'dangerous' and 'reckless'
Medical leaders criticize the CDC's new vaccine guidance, calling it "dangerous," as it reduces recommended shots for children, raising public health concerns.

Trump’s recent actions—illegal military strikes, chaotic tariffs, disrespectful rhetoric— weaken relations with key allies and drive our neighbors further into the arms of our adversaries like China and put Americans’ economic and national security at risk. www.foxnews.com/opinion/sen-...
SEN TIM KAINE: Trump's Venezuela strike trampled Congress' war powers. Congress must stop it
Virginia Democratic senator promises bipartisan resolution vote on Venezuela after unauthorized military strike and capture of Nicolas Maduro on Saturday.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govJan 8(source)
My bipartisan War Powers Resolution has advanced in the Senate—meaning America will finally see a public debate on whether we should be engaging in a war in Venezuela. Next week, every senator will go on the record about whether our sons and daughters should be sent to war.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govJan 5(source)
Mark Kelly is an American hero who bravely served his country for decades. The US military exists to protect Americans' free speech—not suppress it. Hegseth and Trump clearly don't understand this, and the use of military resources and funding for a sham censure is a disgrace.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govJan 5(source)
President Trump says the United States is going to “run” Venezuela, but can’t answer basic questions about what that means. Americans want lower prices, not endless plays to take over foreign countries.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govDec 29(source)
The map of Virginia is a map of our nation’s military history. Ahead of America’s 250th birthday, I introduced bipartisan legislation to preserve our country’s battlefields, so future generations can visit them and learn about the history of these sites.

Happy Kwanzaa to all celebrating and enjoying the festivities. This year, the first principle of Kwanzaa, Umoja, which means unity in Swahili, is especially on my mind. Let’s embrace that value in Virginia, our country, and around the world.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govDec 25(source)
From my family to yours, I want to wish everyone celebrating in Virginia and around the world a very Merry Christmas. I hope you have a wonderful day filled with joy and time with loved ones.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govDec 23(source)
This year’s annual defense bill, which contains key provisions I fought for to increase servicemember pay, formally end the Iraq Wars, and improve military families' access to health care and child care, is now law.
Senator Tim Kaine@kaine.senate.govDec 22(source)
Between mass firings, halted federal funding, Trump’s chaotic economic policies, and more, it’s been a tough year for many Virginians. But I still want to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate what we were able to accomplish together. I’ll see y’all in 2026. youtu.be/2eiOTygf8QU
