Are you REAL ID ready? Starting May 7th, you must have a REAL ID or another accepted form of identification, like a passport, to fly domestically or enter certain federal buildings or military bases.

TO BE TRAVEL READY, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A REAL ID BY MAY 7. ISSUES? CALL MY OFFICE: (804) 486-1840.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present at the bottom left corner of the page.
Former National Institutes of Health director Francis Collins said his position became “untenable” under the second Trump Administration after funding cuts and employee purges. The Administration has created a culture of fear that hurts our ability to lead in public health, research and innovation.
Today marks the first day of the 2025-2026 Congressional App Challenge! All middle and high school students interested in STEM in Virginia’s Fourth District: submit your app design by October 30th for a chance to have it displayed in the U.S. Capitol and more.

McClellan is present at the bottom center of the page.
To close out National Minority Health Month, I anchored the Congressional Black Caucus Special Order Hour with @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social to highlight how the Trump Administration’s actions will make health disparities for the Black community worse.
Cybersecurity threats are growing in frequency and sophistication. But the Trump Administration undermines our ability to respond — and doesn’t seem to understand the importance of national security. I spoke on @energycommerce.bsky.social questioning how we better understand cybersecurity attacks.
Virginia is both the data center capital of the world and the clean energy capital of the South. But the uncertainty caused by Trump’s tariffs hurts our ability to meet energy needs. I joined @energycommerce.bsky.social to question how these tariffs would impact new energy project developments.
During the first three months of Trump 2.0, the U.S. economy shrank for the first time in three years. And that’s before his highest tariffs took effect. No wonder the American people have lost confidence in his economic policy as we face widespread uncertainty and fear of an impending recession.
Since taking office, Trump has made it his goal to “traumatize” the federal workforce. Vanessa in Richmond is just one of thousands who now live in fear after the upending of their lives in public service. Vanessa — you’re not alone. @demwomencaucus.bsky.social is fighting for you. #100DaysofHarm
Our graduate and postdoctoral researchers are the building blocks of our global competitiveness edge. Yet too often we fail to provide them a living wage. I introduced the RESEARCHER Act to address the financial insecurity of our student researchers and build the STEM workforce of tomorrow.

From his failed promise of peace between Ukraine and Russia to a disastrous lack of attention to environmental justice and climate action — Donald Trump is not meeting this critical moment in history. If he won’t keep his promises, Democrats will fight to keep theirs.
This is not even close to all of the ways in which Trump and his Administration have failed the American people, undoing decades of progress and throwing millions of people’s lives and livelihoods in danger.
Trump’s obsession with “cracking down” on illegal immigration has put our rights in jeopardy. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is just one example of how a government that disregards our right to due process is a threat to ALL of us. Now, they’re deporting citizens — and literal children — with no due process.
Virginia’s Fourth is home to 18,000 federal employees. The Commonwealth of Virginia houses over 300,000 federal employees, including those that commute to work in D.C. and nearby states. Virtually all of these people have felt the impacts of this Administration.
