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.

The death of Alex Pretti at the hands of federal agents was barbaric, heartbreaking — and completely preventable.
Those who took his life too soon must be held accountable and Secretary Noem must go.

This month, the world watched in horror as Renee Good and Alex Pretti were brutally gunned down on the streets of Minneapolis.
Americans should not fear being murdered by federal agents for exercising their first amendment rights.

Alex Pretti was a VA nurse. Renee Good was a poet and mother of three.
They were community members, neighbors, and beloved sons and daughters.
But the Trump admin has attempted to smear them as “domestic terrorists” and “monsters.” (1/2)

Secretary Noem has used violence against American citizens, violated the law, and abused her power.

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.

I’m proud of the nominees and grateful to the families for their support.

I am horrified that Congressman Maxwell Frost was assaulted in a cowardly, bigoted attack last night.
I am beyond grateful that he is alright and that the suspect was apprehended.
