I’m so honored that Gov. Abigail Spanberger came to Grottoes to introduce me at a picnic put on by the Waynesboro/Augusta/Staunton/Rockingham Dems. She’s been with me since Day One, endorsing me and encouraging Virginians to knock doors, donate, and, most importantly, and go vote!

Sounds like Ben Cline is afraid to debate Beth Macy. And to meet with constituents who have work or childcare obligations during the work day. He's happy to meet with business owners in a controlled setting, though. We'll be happy to give him plenty of constituent feedback on election day!!

Beth Macy: "Yesterday, Ben Cline released a phony debate schedule without consultation from my campaign. My full statement on Cline’s so-called “debate” acceptance is here:
Last week I directly challenged Rep. Cline to three debates, and I awaited his response to work together to come up with a list of dates and venues. He didn’t respond directly. Instead, yesterday he issued a blanket announcement of his preferred slate of candidate forums – not actual debates – which amounts to a chicken-you-know-what response. A news organization invited us both to appear at a debate it planned to host, but he failed to reply, for fear of, you know, actually having to debate me. Ben thinks he is entitled to your tax dollars and confidence, but I will work for it. I look forward to working with the Cline team on actually scheduling real debates, in good faith. Ben, kick off your training wheels, and actually engage on the issues like the voters of the 6th District deserve. For once, you need to earn the job you’re applying for."

"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people."

I am happy that the House of Representatives voted to end the Iran war unless it receives Congressional approval. Four Republicans joined Democrats to approve the resolution and provide checks on the President, but Ben Cline believes that loyalty to this Administration is his top priority.

SENATOR MARK WARNER ENDORSES BETH MACY FOR CONGRESS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

May 20, 2026

Press Contact: ralph@bethmacyforcongress.com

ROANOKE, VA — United State Senator Mark Warner today announced his endorsement of Beth Macy in her run for Congress. Macy, the best-selling author of Dopesick, Factory Man, Paper Girl and other books, has chronicled the lives of under-represented people of rural Virginia for more than 35 years.

“The 6th District — from Roanoke to Winchester, across the Shenandoah Valley and the New River Valley — deserves a representative who has actually listened to its people, and Beth Macy has spent her entire career doing exactly that, “ said Senator Warner. “Her reporting on the opioid epidemic changed the national conversation; her book Factory Man told the story of what happens when manufacturing disappears and nobody in Washington fights back.

Warner continued: “Ben Cline has voted against addiction treatment, against lowering health care costs, and against the rural investments this region desperately needs. Beth grew up the hard way, she knows these communities because she has lived their stories, and she’ll go to Congress to fight for working families — not pharmaceutical companies and billionaire donors. Virginia is ready for that kind of leadership. I am proud to endorse Beth Macy, and I urge everyone in the 6th district who believes in a future worth fighting for to cast their ballot for Beth on August 4th.”
