Good news! While it’s no secret that Virginia is full of beautiful communities, I’m excited that Fredericksburg’s Caroline Street was recently voted “Best Main Street in the South.” This win is well-deserved. www.fredericksburgfreepress.com/2026/04/08/t...
Yesterday, I joined local partners to celebrate a new project in Floyd to extend public utilities to an undeveloped area, which will be used for affordable workforce housing. I’m glad to have helped secure $1.5 million in funding to help make this project possible.

I had a great tour of Emory & Henry University School of Health Sciences and an informative discussion with students, staff, and faculty. I enjoyed learning more about how the school is working to boost the health care workforce and encourage students to stay in SWVA.

The President is threatening to destroy an entire civilization. Congress must finally reclaim its war power from this increasingly dangerous president. Before he creates more chaos and destruction. Before more servicemembers get killed.
Yesterday, I joined Community Health Center of the New River Valley providers and patients in Christiansburg to tour their center, learn about how funding I secured will be used to help build a new facility, and discuss how federal funding cuts have exacerbated access to health care.

Trump's threat to bomb Iran "back to the stone age" and that "a whole civilization will die tonight" is 1000% out of sync with every moral code. To the Republican leaders: call Congress back into session NOW to stop Trump's plan to slaughter civilians.
Donald Trump just threatened to unilaterally destroy an entire civilization. Is there genuinely no limit to what Republicans will allow this unhinged, unwell man to do? Congress must come back to Washington to rein in this dangerous behavior immediately.
Trump Truth Social post
Trump’s escalation in Iran is reckless. It is unconstitutional. It is dangerous with consequences both vast and globally destabilizing. Right now, the world is holding its breath - watching, waiting, with many fearing what comes next. Moments like this are why the Senate exists.
Thune should immediately call the Senate back into session. Trump’s unhinged threats to commit massive war crimes against Iranian civilian targets show an increasing mental and moral instability we can’t ignore.
As someone who has hiked McAfee Knob many times, I was so excited to celebrate over $6.3 million in funding I secured to make safety improvements for hikers accessing McAfee Knob and the AT. I’m grateful to the partners who worked together to get this done.

Congratulations to the University of Mary Washington Men's Basketball for winning the NCAA Division III Men's Basketball National Championship! Y’all make Virginia proud.
It’s Gold Star Spouses Day, a time to honor the husbands and wives of the heroes who have laid down their lives to protect our nation. I will keep working to pass legislation that supports these brave servicemembers’ families.
Happy Easter, everyone! I’m excited to celebrate at my home Parish and hope everyone observing in Virginia and around the world has a joyous, special day with their loved ones.
