This race is about who will deliver for Virginians.
I have plans to defend against federal overreach, protect our rights, and keep our communities safe.
Meanwhile, Jason Miyares’ only plan is to continue supporting President Trump’s agenda in Virginia.

No flyover states. No communities not worth the time. No voices we can afford to ignore.
The new Democratic Party organizes everywhere, because we can win anywhere. ALL of our families are worth fighting for.

What happened yesterday was part of a much bigger effort to try and silence anyone who dares to question what the Trump administration is doing.
But we will not be intimidated and we will not be deterred.
We must hold this administration accountable.

I know I’m annoying about being factual…but please stop posting that we’re exempting Rolls Royce cars from tariffs for the 30 people
who can afford them.
They make jet engines. That’s what was exempted. It’s a gift to Boeing.
RR makes FAR more from defense and aviation than cars.
