I’m running for re-election in Virginia’s 11th district. My full statement ⬇️.

We can’t afford to wait until DHS kills someone else. Trump and Republicans haven’t shown any real willingness to consider reforms to immigration enforcement, and they just passed a bill that allows DHS to continue the same chaos and lawlessness. That’s why I voted No today.

Alex Pretti was killed by the Trump administration. They are trying to break us. But we are not broken. We are stronger than ever—and we are making a difference.

Last night we brought together faith and advocacy leaders from across Northern Virginia to mourn Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and all those harmed by the brutality of DHS. This moment is bigger than politics. It’s about our shared humanity.

Today I stood with federal workers outside VA headquarters as we mourned the loss of Alex Pretti—a VA ICU nurse, caregiver, and public servant killed by DHS. We will keep organizing, keep showing up, and keep fighting to hold this administration accountable.

The Trump Administration to Minnesota: “Turn over your voter rolls and we’ll stop terrorizing your citizens!” What the heck does that have to do with public safety?

From failing to deliver natural disaster relief and corruption scandals to lawless immigration enforcement and the killing of Alex Pretti, Kristi Noem has violated her oath of office. She needs to be removed.

State and local law enforcement agencies across this country have some basic standards. Federal agencies should too. The DHS funding bill needs explicit language reining in Trump’s out-of-control immigration enforcement, and violators need to be disciplined and fired.

Donald Trump won’t be President forever and Republicans won’t control Congress forever. It might not be tomorrow and it might not be next week, but there will be accountability for this violating the law and violating the civil and constitutional rights of the American people.

53 years since Roe v. Wade, and we won’t stop fighting until reproductive freedom is fully restored.

American families cannot afford Donald Trump’s ego. Last year, his trade wars cost the average American family $1,200. This year it’s $2,100. Now, he’s threatening more tariffs in his fight over Greenland.

Proud to witness history today, and looking forward to working with Abigail Spanberger, Ghazala Hashmi, and Jay Jones for the next four years!

Tomorrow, I’m traveling to Minneapolis for a field hearing to hear directly from community members impacted by the militarization and brutal tactics of ICE and federal immigration enforcement agencies. It’s time for Congress to rein in the abuses coming from the Trump Administration’s DHS.

I’m voting YES for Fair Elections. My full statement.

Renee Nicole Good’s three children are without a mother today. As Renee’s children mourn, this White House has expressed zero remorse for her killing, and instead is more interested in spinning a narrative than conducting a real investigation.

Congrats to Delegates-elect Gretchen Bulova and Margaret Franklin on their overwhelming victories tonight. Both will make incredible members of the General Assembly!

Trump had no plan for the day, the week, or the month after the removal of Maduro in Venezuela. War for oil is flat out wrong and it flat out won’t work.

The Trump Administration’s mass deportation agenda is terrorizing communities across our nation. Today, I stood with “ICE Out” protestors to say clearly: end the violence, end the lawlessness, and end the brutality.

15 years ago today, @gabbygiffords.bsky.social was shot while meeting with her constituents in Tucson. Six people were killed, 12 were injured, and Gabby’s life was forever changed. Instead of stepping away, Gabby transformed unimaginable tragedy into purpose (1/2).

I remember when President Trump campaigned on ending foreign wars and bringing down costs at home. Now, costs are up and he’s risking American boots on the ground to quote “run” Venezuela. This isn’t what we agreed to.

Disturbing new reporting reveals that young women were sent from Mar-a-Lago to Jeffrey Epstein’s mansion for “massages.” Donald Trump’s statements aren’t adding up—and instead of the transparency the law requires, we’re getting a cover-up.

The last thing the United States should be doing is invading a foreign nation to seize control of oil. Trump’s war is flat out illegal and unconstitutional, and I hope my Republican colleagues will join me in voting to stop it when they return this week.

Trump’s regime change war in Venezuela is flat out illegal and yet another betrayal of the commitments he made to the American people. He said he’d lower prices. He’s driving prices up. He said no “new stupid wars.” He’s starting new stupid wars. #Venezuela

As we approach the anniversary of Jan. 6, we can’t forget—a sitting president tried to subvert the results of a free and fair election and cheered on a violent mob to attack our Capitol. When history books are written about Donald Trump, Jan. 6 will be in the first paragraph.

Had the FBI acted in 1996, decades of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes could have been stopped. The Trump DOJ needs to end this coverup and release all of the Epstein files as required by law.

Trump’s DOJ is breaking the law with their partial release and heavy redactions of the Epstein files. Congressional Republicans will have to decide whether they’re going to stand up to Trump’s illegal cover up of the full truth.

Celebrating the Hunter Mill Democrats today and the hard work that powered this year’s statewide victories! Together, we’re building strong momentum and carrying it into 2026.

Secretary Noem left our hearing early, but she can’t outrun a $220 million corruption scandal. Taxpayers deserve transparency around her self-promotion advertising campaigns and who benefitted from them.

The idea that the “fork in the road”/DRP ultimatums led to purely voluntary departures is laughable and Scott Kupor should be embarrassed to make it. Resign or you’ll be fired/demoted is not voluntary, it’s coerced.

Congratulations to Supervisor-elect Rachna Sizemore Heizer on her victory in last night’s special election. She will serve our community well in this new role.

Braddock District, TODAY is the special election to fill my seat on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. We voted for Rachna Sizemore Heizer because she has the experience and values to represent us. If you live in Braddock, polls are open until 7 PM at your normal polling location!

Having represented the Braddock District for 6 years and worked directly with Rachna Sizemore Heizer, I know she has the values and experience to fill my seat and deliver for our community. This special election is TOMORROW—Tue, Dec 9th. Polls are open 6 AM - 7 PM at your normal polling location.

Yvette, Mateo, and I loved joining McLean’s Winterfest Parade yesterday! Thank you, McLean— stay warm and enjoy the holiday season!

Today, I joined a canvass launch in Burke to support Rachna Sizemore Heizer in the special election to fill my seat on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. Thank you to everyone who came out to knock doors!

Had a great night at the Fairfax Democrats annual Holiday Party alongside @markwarnerva.bsky.social. Plenty of holiday spirit, camaraderie, and some impressive caroling!

Nah Tim, it ain’t the messaging. Hard to message the fact that your policies are hurting hard-working Americans.

The Republican War on Healthcare will cost Virginia $3.2 billion and cause hundreds of thousands to lose coverage. Virginians flat out can’t afford these reckless Republican policies. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

The Trump Administration is letting “the worst of the worst,” including gun and child sex traffickers, off the hook while focusing massive resources on rounding up law abiding, hardworking immigrants. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I’m proud to endorse @markwarnerva.bsky.social re-election to the U.S. Senate. Throughout his career, he has worked tirelessly to make Virginia more affordable, keep our communities safe, and deliver real results for families across the Commonwealth.

A chilly morning, but a warm and festive community! Wonderful to join the annual Reston Holiday Parade to kick off the season.❄️🎄

Had the honor of participating in an inspiring conversation with President Obama, Speaker Emerita Pelosi, and my fellow freshman Members of Congress recently.

Perhaps the single most wasteful, inefficient failed initiative in history. Good riddance.

Good to know!

Trump’s reckless attacks on the federal workforce have weakened our cyber defenses, putting all Americans at risk and making it easier for China to attack us. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

President Trump and Speaker Johnson keep calling the push to release the Epstein files a “hoax”. Tell that to the survivors of Epstein’s horrific crimes. Survivors are calling for transparency and justice. Today, the House will finally vote on it.

Donald Trump is building a golden ballroom for him and his buddies to have parties. Meanwhile, American families are facing skyrocketing health care premiums and rising grocery costs.

Fairfax Democrats delivered record margins to elect Abigail Spanberger and the Democratic ticket this year. @markwarnerva.bsky.social and I joined Sully Dems and Dranesville Dems to thank their volunteers and gear up for 2026.

Republicans passed the largest health care cut in American history and are now pushing hardworking Americans off their coverage. Democrats have been fighting to cancel the cuts and save health care.

Newly released emails suggest Trump knew about Epstein’s abuse and spent time with one of the victims. Trump’s behavior says it all—he’s panicking and desperately trying to get House Republicans to pull their names off the discharge petition. Americans deserve full transparency. #ReleaseTheFiles

House Republicans created a health care crisis they now refuse to address. Now Virginians are seeing their premiums skyrocket. Republicans in Virginia saw the consequences of this at the ballot box last Tuesday. They’ll see it again next year if they don’t work with us to fix it.
