Last night, I was honored to attend the John D. Jenkins Good Scout Award Dinner in Woodbridge.
It was great to celebrate community members who embody the values of the Boy Scouts and champion the local leaders of tomorrow.
Thank you for all you contribute to our neighborhoods.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans have been furloughed as a result of Republicans' reckless shutdown.
But don't just take my word for it — look at the numbers.
It’s time my colleagues agree to work across the aisle to reopen the government and get people back to work.
On day 16 of the government shutdown, I’m answering the question everyone's been asking: When will it end?
@housedemocrats.bsky.social are ready to get back to work and pass a bipartisan budget. Republicans just need to agree to protect the people they serve.
Did you know that Virginia is one of the leading states in student loan debt?
In Congress, I’m committed to increasing access to affordable higher education so students can pursue their dreams without being burdened by decades of debt.
While Capitol Police go without pay, Members of Congress continue to draw full salaries. That’s unacceptable.
That’s why I introduced a bipartisan bill that would withhold congressional pay during government shutdowns.
If those who keep us safe aren't getting paid, neither should Congress.
This #WorldFoodDay, I’m thinking of the farmers and producers across Virginia’s Seventh District who work every day to feed our communities.
As the only Virginian on the House Agriculture Committee, I’ll keep fighting for a stronger, fairer food system that supports them — from field to table.
Day 14 of the government shutdown and there's nothing but crickets on Capitol Hill.
@HouseGOP, come back so we can put an end to this eerie silence.
Adelita Grijalva should be sworn in immediately.
Every American deserves a voice in Congress — it’s time for Speaker Johnson to stop playing games and let Adelita get to work for the people of Arizona’s Seventh District.
Last week, I joined the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank to distribute food to federal employees and contractors impacted by the shutdown.
I’m grateful to everyone who’s stepped up to support our community — and I’ll keep fighting to get these hardworking Virginians back to work.
I’ve directed the U.S. House to withhold my pay during the shutdown.
If federal workers are missing paychecks because of Washington’s dysfunction, Members of Congress certainly shouldn’t be cashing theirs.
My bill with Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick would make that the rule, not the exception.
To no one’s surprise, the Trump admin is once again illegally firing federal workers. I will do everything in my power to make sure that they are held accountable for their cruel, reckless actions.
My team and I joined the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank to distribute food to those impacted by the government shutdown. We were proud to serve over 150 families.
Thank you to the Food Bank for being such an asset to our community and for stepping up to support those in need.
The government has been shut down for TWO WEEKS.
I represent tens of thousands of federal workers who are still showing up and doing their jobs — without pay, might I add.
Republicans should try doing theirs and working with Democrats to reopen the government.
The release of all living hostages is a long-awaited moment of relief.
May it pave the way for a lasting future of peace and security in the region.
Extreme Republicans are keeping the government shut down while military families like Samantha's are paying the price.
Stop the political games, Speaker Johnson. Lives are at risk.
Love when people narrate their own illegal activity in real time.
As someone who interacts with folks across our community every day, I want to do my part to keep everyone safe and healthy.
I got my COVID and flu shots — and you should too!
🚨DEADLINE APPROACHING: I'm honored to recommend outstanding students from VA-07 as they apply for a spot at our nation's service academies.
To be considered for a nomination from my office, apply by MONDAY October 13.
This government shutdown has sadly hit double digits.
It is day 10 in D.C., and I’m still here, ready to pass a budget. When will House Republicans return to work?
