We can have secure borders without being cruel, and the proposed ICE facility in Stafford would be cruel to the core, counter to the desires of our neighbors.
We need to fight it, and I’ll do that every day in Congress.

Last night, I attended a candlelight vigil with Congressional Democrats to commemorate the fifth anniversary of January 6.
May we never forget the tragedies of that day — the assault on our democratic processes, the injuries suffered by more than 140 law enforcement officers, and the lives lost.
Officer Daniel Hodges responded to the attack on the Capitol, where he was assaulted and beaten.
Today, Officer Hodges continues to serve the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department to defend our democracy. I am thankful for his service.
Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick defended Congress from a violent mob on January 6, 2021. After being attacked by rioters, Officer Sicknick passed away the following night.
My thoughts are with Officer Sicknick’s loved ones and all of the brave first responders who defended our Capitol.
I am saddened by the passing of my colleague, Congressman Doug LaMalfa.
We served on the House Agriculture Committee together, and I know him to be a fighter for the people of Northern California.
Cindy and I are thinking of his loved ones during this difficult time.
Today marks five years since a violent mob attacked the U.S. Capitol. I’m grateful for the brave law enforcement officers who stepped up in defense of democracy.
May we recommit to defending our democratic principles — and never forget the sacrifices made to uphold them.
He gave the oil companies a heads up, but couldn’t bother to tell Congress.
It’s never been more clear whose interests Trump is looking out for, and it’s not those of the American people.

We could have more chaos, refugees, and violence. It's why Americans are right to want us to avoid war.
For those who missed this back in November, I don't usually hope the military is wrong, but I hope they were on this war game.
The only thing that's clear after this morning's press conference is that the administration has no plan for what comes next in Venezuela.
Trump is wrong to start a war in Venezuela. It is not what the American people want, it is not putting America first, and it is not worth American blood and treasure.
Over the past two decades, we have learned the hard way that wars are easy to start and hard to finish. A plan rarely survives first contact. Having served in Iraq, I’ve seen this first hand.
Let there be no mistake, President Trump has started a war in Venezuela, without any Congressional approval, and in violation of the Constitution.
Cindy and my thoughts are with our troops this morning and their families. We hope they come home safe.
The U.S. military is a remarkable instrument that performs magnificently.
The question is whether it will be a tool of conquest or a tool to defend American lives and values.
As we ring in the New Year, I’m wishing all Virginians a happy and safe start to 2026.
May the year ahead bring health, happiness, and meaningful time with loved ones.
From dollars returned and cases closed to bills introduced and letters sent, my team and I have been hard at work delivering real results for Virginia’s Seventh District.

I’m proud of what my team and I have accomplished in our first year serving Virginians in Congress — and we’re just getting started.
Here are a few highlights from the work we’ve done on your behalf.
This past year, I’ve had the privilege of serving you and our community in Congress.
As we wrap up 2025, I want you to know that every day, my focus is on delivering real results for Virginia families.
To all Virginians celebrating today, Merry Christmas! 🎄
From my family to yours, wishing you a holiday filled with peace, joy, and time with loved ones.
