Trump’s tariffs could cost Virginia an estimated $2 billion—and for what? To help Trump pay for massive tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans! I won’t let them go into effect without a fight.

On International Women’s Day, we honor and celebrate the countless women who have fought for equal rights and persevered in the face of adversity. Because of them, our world is a better place. Together, we will carry on their legacies and remain committed to advancing equality for all.
Today, I heard from CFPB employees who were illegally fired by Trump. These attacks don't just hurt these dedicated workers—they hurt all of us.
CFPB has returned $21 billion to consumers who have been scammed or wronged. I wonder why Trump and Elon Musk want to gut it...
60 years ago, peaceful protestors marching for voting rights were violently attacked by state troopers during their attempted 54-mile march from Selma to Montgomery, AL. May the protestors’ steadfast resolve and determination in the face of violence continue to be a guiding light for us all.
The Department of Health and Human Services recently terminated a policy requiring the agency to notify the public about their work and take comments.
The American people have a right to know what the federal government is doing—and tell them when they disagree.
Trump’s recklessness will raise costs, so I’m taking action. My legislation will force a vote on ending Trump’s new taxes on Canadian goods—VA's largest export market. I urge my colleagues to put partisanship aside, do the right thing, and vote to bring costs down.

Groceries and home goods prices are going up fast—Target’s CEO warns Trump’s new taxes could quickly cause price increases. These taxes are completely unnecessary and will hurt Americans’ wallets.

My statement on President Trump’s address to Congress:
Mass federal worker layoffs are leaving veterans without jobs and creating barriers to accessing care in Salem and nationwide. I’m fighting to protect veterans from shortsighted cuts by urging Trump to reinstate fired veterans and ensure VA facilities are fully staffed.

Happy Women’s History Month! This month, we celebrate the countless women who have changed our world for the better through their bravery, intelligence, and tenacity. It is on all of us to continue fighting to create a more equitable world for the generations of women to come.
Excited to celebrate the opening of the new Fredericksburg VA Clinic. The clinic, made possible by a bill I supported, will help more veterans get the care they need.
Now we must ensure the clinic is staffed. I’m going to keep pushing the Trump Admin to end its hiring freeze for all VA positions.
It was great to attend the grand opening of the @virginiatech.bsky.social Innovation Campus in Alexandria! I’ve long supported VT’s expansion to Northern Virginia, which will create a pipeline of talent that will propel Virginia into the future, and I look forward to continuing this work. Go Hokies!
As Ramadan begins tonight, I want to wish the Muslim community in Virginia and across the world a blessed and reflective month. May this time bring peace to all observing. Ramadan Mubarak!
Henry Marsh was a civil rights lawyer, Richmond’s first African American mayor, and my mentor. He dedicated himself to fighting against discrimination in court and for investments in overlooked communities. He passed away earlier this year. I am grateful for his service, wisdom, and friendship.
When Maggie L. Walker saw white banks undervalue African American patrons, hindering their ability to invest, achieve home ownership, and build wealth, she did what no U.S. woman had done before: she founded her own bank. Her prowess for banking helped hundreds and forged paths for generations.
Yesterday, @markwarner.bsky.social, @bobbyscott.house.gov, @mcclellan.house.gov, @repvindman.bsky.social, and I hosted Virginians to honor Black History Month. As some try to erase Black history, it’s more important than ever to celebrate Black Americans’ many contributions throughout history.
Trump’s illegal layoffs of federal workers is disproportionately impacting veterans, who make up 30% of the federal workforce. Today, @blumenthal.senate.gov and I wrote to him to demand that these veterans be immediately reinstated with full back pay and benefits.
Trump is illegally attempting to eliminate the Inter-American Foundation, ending important work in our hemisphere to bolster security and prosperity. As the top Democrat on the Senate Western Hemisphere subcommittee, I’m demanding Trump reverse course.
Mary W. Jackson, a Hampton native, became the first African American woman engineer at NASA in 1958. There, she supported space missions, including the first moon landing. Her barrier-breaking career was chronicled in the book and film “Hidden Figures,” and in 2021, the NASA HQ was named after her.
