  • Position Abortion

    “I support Ballot Question 1. A woman's health care decisions should remain between her and her doctor, not lawmakers in Richmond or Washington.”

  • Promise Cost of Living

    “I am proud to lead on legislation that would pause both the diesel and gas taxes, giving Virginians a much-needed break when filling the tank. Republicans chose an unpopular, expensive war in Iran that has driven gas prices through the roof. Not only will these bills make it cheaper to fill up on gas, but lowering diesel prices will reduce the costs of groceries and other household goods that are shipped across the country in diesel-powered trucks. I'll never stop fighting to lower gas prices and bring down the cost of living for Virginians.”

  • Promise Election Integrity

    “I believe the best way to strengthen confidence in our elections is to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat. That starts with passing the SAVE Act to ensure only U.S. citizens can vote in federal elections, requiring voter ID, maintaining accurate voter rolls, and consistently enforcing election laws.”
