Our nation is at a crossroads — and it’s up to us to determine whether our 250th anniversary will be a celebration… or a wake. I spoke with @rvamag.bsky.social about where our nation stands, where we go from here, and how the current moment stress-tests the ideals upon which America was founded.
Graphic. Background is photo of Rep. McClellan speaking at a podium. Text reads, “What gives me hope — even though I’m fighting the same fights that my parents, grandparents, and great grandparents fought — is that I’m doing it from a position of more strength and power than they ever dreamed of. “I think that’s true of every American right now. Compared to where we were in the 1880s, and even in the 1960s, people understand their power. But sometimes we have to remind them.” Logos of RVA Mag and Rep. McClellan are present at the bottom center of the page.

VPM connects nearly 2 million people across Central Virginia and the Shenandoah Valley to coverage of government meetings, PBS/NPR shows, educational programming, emergency alerts and more. With the loss of federal funding, these stations will have to slash programming — if they can even survive.

Trump’s latest unconstitutional attack on free speech/press will hit local PBS/NPR stations like @vpm.org hard. What does that mean for you?

In an executive order, President Trump directs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding NPR and PBS, the nation's primary public broadcasters.

Are you REAL ID ready? Starting May 7th, you must have a REAL ID or another accepted form of identification, like a passport, to fly domestically or enter certain federal buildings or military bases.

TO BE TRAVEL READY, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A REAL ID BY MAY 7. ISSUES? CALL MY OFFICE: (804) 486-1840.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present at the bottom left corner of the page.

Former National Institutes of Health director Francis Collins said his position became “untenable” under the second Trump Administration after funding cuts and employee purges. The Administration has created a culture of fear that hurts our ability to lead in public health, research and innovation.
Ex-NIH chief says he was "not allowed to speak" under 2nd Trump administration
New NIH director Jay Bhattacharya said at his confirmation hearing he'd "establish a culture of respect for free speech."

To close out National Minority Health Month, I anchored the Congressional Black Caucus Special Order Hour with @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social to highlight how the Trump Administration’s actions will make health disparities for the Black community worse.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govMay 1(source)
Cybersecurity threats are growing in frequency and sophistication. But the Trump Administration undermines our ability to respond — and doesn’t seem to understand the importance of national security. I spoke on @energycommerce.bsky.social questioning how we better understand cybersecurity attacks.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govMay 1(source)
Virginia is both the data center capital of the world and the clean energy capital of the South. But the uncertainty caused by Trump’s tariffs hurts our ability to meet energy needs. I joined @energycommerce.bsky.social to question how these tariffs would impact new energy project developments.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govApr 30(source)
During the first three months of Trump 2.0, the U.S. economy shrank for the first time in three years. And that’s before his highest tariffs took effect. No wonder the American people have lost confidence in his economic policy as we face widespread uncertainty and fear of an impending recession.
U.S. economy shrank in early 2025 as tariffs sapped growth, imports surged
GDP contracted at an annual rate of 0.3 percent, a new report shows, as imports surged with panic purchases ahead of tariffs.
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govApr 30(source)
Since taking office, Trump has made it his goal to “traumatize” the federal workforce. Vanessa in Richmond is just one of thousands who now live in fear after the upending of their lives in public service. Vanessa — you’re not alone. @demwomencaucus.bsky.social is fighting for you. #100DaysofHarm
Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govApr 30(source)
Our graduate and postdoctoral researchers are the building blocks of our global competitiveness edge. Yet too often we fail to provide them a living wage. I introduced the RESEARCHER Act to address the financial insecurity of our student researchers and build the STEM workforce of tomorrow.
Graphic. Background is photo of lab equipment. Text reads, “MCCLELLAN INTRODUCES RESEARCHER ACT TO ADDRESS FINANCIAL INSECURITY FOR GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHERS.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present at the bottom center of the page.
