This week, I visited Eugene Triplett's fifth-generation family farm in Culpeper.
As the only Virginian on the Ag Committee, I was honored to visit his farm, hear his story, and discuss how I'm working to save programs that help him sell produce to local churches and schools.

I secured $2.75 MILLION in federal funding for critical public safety projects across the Seventh District.
I’m proud to support our local law enforcement and first responders by delivering the resources they need to keep our neighborhoods safe.

What you’re hearing are the voices of Americans calling my office, distraught by ICE actions in Minneapolis and across the country.
They called because they’re scared, they're angry, and they're demanding change.
Their message is clear: ICE must be held accountable.

Donald Trump is mentioned more than 1,000 times in the most recent release of the Epstein files — bringing his total mentions to over 5,300.
Enough with the cover up.
The American people deserve the truth about the president's cozy relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

As a veteran, I know the U.S. Army holds its soldiers deployed abroad to a higher standard than what we have seen from ICE on American streets.
That's why I voted NO on a bill to fund ICE without making critical reforms.

I am deeply disturbed that Rep. Ilhan Omar was charged by an agitator at a town hall last night.
Violence and intimidation have no place in our society. Trump needs to turn down the temperature of his dangerous rhetoric.
The attacker must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
