Trump’s proposed plans to target nonpartisan federal workers threaten the services Virginians rely on. These workers must be hired based on their expertise, not their political party. That’s why I introduced a bill today to protect them from politically-motivated firings.

I’m thrilled $3.9 million in federal funding—made possible by the American Rescue Plan I helped pass—is coming to Disputanta to expand workforce training to support the Richmond-Petersburg Advanced Pharmaceutical Manufacturing cluster.

As a member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, I’m committed to ensuring that health care is affordable. That's why I introduced a bill to make enhanced premium tax credits for marketplace coverage permanent to prevent cost increases for Virginians.
Pete Hegseth hid his alleged sexual misconduct, ensuing criminal investigation, and private settlement he reached with his accuser while under consideration to lead the DOD.
He knew it would hurt his chances.
How can he be trusted to be honest with the President and public?
GOP members complaining about reduction of military standards while using a chart that misspells the word military!
Happy Korean American Day! Today recognizes the anniversary of Korean immigrants first arriving in the U.S. 122 years later, I’m proud to support VA’s incredible Korean American community, including by introducing legislation to help reunite families separated by the Korean War.
Thanks to legislation I helped pass, over $12 million in federal investments is coming to VA airports, building on over $207 million for airport upgrades I helped secure in '24. These resources are good for our economy and help Virginians get where they need to go. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...
My reading list is full after receiving these books for the holidays!
This week, I introduced legislation to grant statehood to D.C. Virginia’s 700,000 neighbors in D.C. are subjected to taxation without representation, and that’s unfair. All Americans deserve to have their voices heard in our democracy.
2024 ended on an economic high note: the final jobs report under President Biden reveals a strong 256,000 jobs were added to the economy in December. I will keep working to build on this economic growth in the years ahead.
I'm gratified that following Richmond resident James Rudisill’s legal fight, the VA has expanded GI education benefits for over 1 million veterans. I’m thankful to Rudisill, whose case I supported, for championing this issue and changing the lives of veterans for the better.
Did you miss your initial Medicare open enrollment period? Don’t worry, you have until March 31 to sign up during Medicare’s general enrollment period. Check in with your local VICAP counselor to learn about your options. www.vda.virginia.gov/vicap.htm
I traveled across Southwest Virginia to hear about Hurricane Helene-related challenges and pushed hard for disaster aid resources in the recent government funding bill. Glad over $46 million of it is coming to VA to address housing and economic needs. www.kaine.senate.gov/press-releas...
It’s past time to end the conflict in Sudan. The U.S.’s announcement of sanctions on RSF leader General Hemedti for committing genocide in Darfur is a step in the right direction. I will keep pushing to stop the violence and secure a democratic future for all Sudanese people.
Digital skills are a key path to good-paying jobs, but many lack opportunities to build these skills. That’s why I’m proud that through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law I helped pass, $10.5 million in funding is coming to VA to create opportunities and close the digital divide.
My statement on the anniversary of the January 6 attack on the Capitol:
PFC Desmond T. Doss was an American hero, saving dozens of lives in WWII. I’m proud to have helped pass a bill to rename the Lynchburg VA clinic after him to honor his bravery and service and inspire future Virginians to follow his footsteps. wset.com/news/local/l...
Virginia, I’m honored and grateful to serve you again in the 119th Congress. I will continue to fight for a brighter future for everyone in the great Commonwealth I’m lucky to call home. Let's get to work!
Something exciting has happened this year already! Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, Americans on Medicare now have a $2,000 annual cap on their combined, total out-of-pocket costs for covered drugs. Learn more here:
