I’ve heard from more than 800 Virginians who are feeling the squeeze of rising utility costs and struggling to make ends meet.
That’s why I introduced two pieces of legislation to lower costs for families and hold utility companies accountable.

Congratulations to North Stafford High School’s Class of 2026! Your hard work, perseverance, and achievements have brought you to this exciting milestone.
Whether you’re heading to college, starting a career, serving your community, or pursuing new opportunities, your future is bright.
🚨 My Republican colleagues used a procedural maneuver to block my effort to lower prescription drug costs for military families in the NDAA.
That’s unacceptable.
These brave men and women deserve leadership that matches their sacrifice.
On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we honor the lives lost to gun violence and stand with the survivors, families, and communities impacted by it.

Last weekend, I was honored to attend Ramoth Baptist Church’s groundbreaking ceremony for its new Family Life Center in Stafford.
The new facility will support the church’s growing youth and children’s programs while also providing a gathering space for church-wide events and fellowship.

As a 25-year Army veteran representing 36,000 service members, I know firsthand what our troops need to succeed. That’s why I worked across the aisle to get this done.
🚨I just voted to advance the FY27 NDAA out of committee.
I was proud to secure bipartisan wins for Virginia, including a pay raise for our troops, stronger efforts to crack down on transnational criminal organizations that scam Americans, and a provision to lower gas prices for military families.
In today's NDAA markup, my colleagues and I are fighting to make sure our warfighters and military families receive the support and resources they have earned.
As a 25-year U.S. Army veteran, I am honored to represent tens of thousands of service members in Virginia’s Seventh District.
Across Virginia, farmers are experiencing significant crop damage due to inclement weather and rising costs driven by Trump's trade war.
Today in a House Ag Committee hearing, Sec. Rollins committed to issuing a Secretarial Disaster Designation for Virginia, and I expect her to follow through.
🚨I just introduced bipartisan legislation with Rep. Barry Moore to ban Members of Congress from lobbying their former colleagues after leaving office.
We should be working to restore public trust — not turning elected office into a stepping stone for getting rich.

Today, we begin marking up this year's NDAA, the legislation that sets priorities for our national defense.
I'm ready to fight for an NDAA that strengthens U.S. military readiness, supports service members and their families, & reinforces American leadership in today’s global security environment.
At a time when Virginians are already feeling the strain of rising prices, we should be doing everything we can to provide relief and keep essential goods moving affordably across the country. (2/2)
Higher grocery bills, higher utility bills, higher prices at the pump — all driven by rising transportation costs as diesel prices continue to climb due to Trump's war of choice with Iran.
That’s why I introduced the Diesel Prices Relief Act to temporarily suspend the federal diesel tax. (1/2)
I also want to congratulate 1SG Mateo's daughter, Marilyn, for graduating from Colgan High School on the same day. Marilyn was the winner of my office's Congressional Art Competition this year, and her work will hang in the Capitol for one year!
Congratulations to you both. (2/2)
Tarazha and Alejandra from my team were honored to attend First Sergeant Maylene Mateo's U.S. Army retirement ceremony.
1SG Mateo dedicated more than 9,000 days to serving our nation.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice, 1SG Mateo. I wish you all the best in your retirement. (1/2)
After news that Dominion Energy could be acquired by NextEra, it’s clear we need stronger protections to ensure consumers come before corporate profits.
That’s why I’m leading legislation to lower utility costs and increase oversight of utility monopolies.
