SOTU Tuesday was honestly a little scary. @SpanbergerForVA wasn’t. Proud to be a Virginian with leadership that stands up to authoritarianism- feeling even more determined to bring that leadership to Congress in 2027!

This #BlackHistoryMonth, I plan to walk the walk and not just talk the talk. I will be reading and amplifying black voices throughout the month and sharing resources on my various platforms. I hope you join my efforts to make this month meaningful.

VA6 is the heart of VA agriculture: over 7k farms and 1 million+ acres. But they’re struggling from tariffs, USDA budget cuts, and NOAA forecast cuts. That’s why I’ll seek a seat on the House #AgCommittee to fight for our farmers and agriculture industry.

As a Virginian, I have had the privilege of representation in Washington that other Americans have not. When I am in Congress, I will cast my vote in favor of statehood for DC and Puerto Rico so that every American has their say in Washington.

In the first four months of 2025 ICE detained nearly 150 people in the Harrisonburg region. No resident of the 6th district deserves to live their life in fear. I'm disgusted by the use of masked secret police to arrest my fellow community members, including fellow veterans.

With yesterday's failed healthcare vote, VA6 residents are stuck between another shutdown or missing out on critical services for good. Let’s elect someone in 2026 who will lower healthcare costs, fight to keep our government open, and bring real results to the 6th district.

In efforts to "Make America Healthy Again," Congress has, in fact, made it more difficult to live well. The lives of others should not be left up to choices made on poor information and leadership. We deserve better. washingtonpost.com/health/2025/12…

Cline's concern about supporting American industry would be more believable if he hadn't voted against the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, and the CHIPS and Science Act, all of which made massive investments in American manufacturing.

Women deserve better than Ben Cline.

Let's call the Republicans' move to devalue professional degrees what it is - an attack on women and the less affluent. The degrees that are proposed to be no longer considered "professional" and will receive less federal funding are all careers dominated by women.

The possibility that our Secretary of Defense committed war crimes in the Caribbean is exactly why we need leaders in office who will take their oath to the Constitution seriously. I've taken that oath before and I know what it means. In Congress, I'm ready to take it again.

Ben Cline: claps about jobs reports but won't stand up for 6th district farmers who are losing money to Argentine beef imports. Shameful.

I’m fighting for something bigger than myself – this is about protecting democracy. MAGA Republicans started this redistricting fight, and Virginian voters will get to decide how they want to end it. augustafreepress.com/news/ken-mitch…
