During this week’s recess, I answered viewer questions on 12 On Your Side, celebrated Black Maternal Health Week, met with my Youth Advisory Council and more.
Keep watching to see what you missed this week.

I swore an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States. The Trump Administration tramples it by deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador with no due process and threatening to do the same to U.S. citizens.
I joined @ivey.house.gov to demand answers and the return of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
I’m glad to see my Republican colleagues support Medicaid, but I am perplexed by their votes to advance a budget that the Congressional Budget Office says will cut Medicaid.
Their votes will determine whether hundreds of thousands of Virginians keep their health insurance and hospitals stay open.
Join me Tuesday, April 22nd at 6:30 PM for an in-person town hall at the Brunswick County Conference Center!
There, we’ll discuss what’s happening in Washington and how it impacts YOU — from the Trump Administration’s tariffs and funding freezes to Congressional Republican planned budget cuts.
Listen to our full interview here:
As a Black mother who almost died in childbirth, I know how important access to care is.
As we close out #BlackMaternalHealthWeek and recognize today’s #MedicaidDayofAction, I spoke with @zerlinamaxwell.bsky.social about how Republican Medicaid cuts will exacerbate the maternal mortality crisis.
Watch the full segment here:
Trump’s flip-flopping on tariffs is causing widespread panic and uncertainty for businesses and consumers across the country. This week, I spoke with @12onyourside.com about what these tariffs mean for you.
Tune in!
The Trump Administration has eviscerated our public health infrastructure, costing the already understaffed VA Dept of Health $200 million and over 500 employees/contractors combatting COVID, bird flu, measles and other threats.
This approach weakens our ability to keep our communities safe.
As Congressional Republicans avoid constituent town halls to answer for their actions — or lack thereof — you can join me for TWO next week.
I’ll answer constituent questions about what’s happening in Washington in Brunswick on 4/22, and at the Henrico NAACP town hall in Richmond on 4/23.

I joined @12onyourside.com to answer viewer questions about what’s happening in Washington. Pat from Mechanicsville asked what Congress is doing to protect retirees, Social Security and Medicare.
The fear and uncertainty among our constituents is real.
Watch the full segment here:
The Trump Administration canceled a $12 million federal grant for Richmond to upgrade its 101-year-old water treatment plant, which failed during storms in January and left the city without drinkable water for six days.
I spoke with @cbs6-richmond.bsky.social about the potential fallout.
The Trump Administration and Elon Musk are trying to cut Social Security to fund tax cuts for billionaires.
153,723 VA-04 residents receive monthly Social Security benefits. On today’s #SocialSecurityDayofAction, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are telling them to keep their hands off Social Security.
Imagine you’re pulled over, accused of being in a gang and shipped to El Salvador with no hearing. Officials admit they sent you by mistake and ignore a SCOTUS decision to get you home.
Sounds like a bad action thriller, but it’s reality for Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia.
And it’s horrifying.
Last week ended with House Republicans voting to impose a poll tax on millions of American citizens by passing the SAVE Act and to strip healthcare and other essential services from millions more through the Senate-revised budget plan.
Read more of what you missed in my newsletter.
Ensuring Black mothers get the care they need starts with defending our health and public health institutions from cuts, layoffs and more — and investing in resources to support prenatal and postnatal care at every level.
