Politicians should not be making women’s health care decisions for them. I will always stand up for abortion rights, reproductive care, and every woman’s freedom to make her own decisions about her body and her future.

Thank you to Rev. Dr. Sandra James and the First Mount Zion Baptist Church congregation for such a warm welcome on Sunday! It was a real joy for @jasminecrockett29.bsky.social and me to join local elected officials and the FMZBC congregation for Sunday worship.

Great to be in King George for the “Almost Annual” Collis Warner Pig Roast this weekend! Nothing beats good food, great company, and a whole lot of Virginia Democrats working hard for our Commonwealth, plus one Marylander who crossed the Potomac to join us!

The Fredericksburg VA needs additional staff and resources to provide veterans with the quality care they’ve earned. I’ve been pushing the VA to address staffing shortages and fill critical vacancies, and I’ll keep at it until veterans can count on the timely, reliable care they deserve.

31 DAYS until Election Day. It was great to have Governor Wes Moore in FXBG today to fire folks up for the fight ahead. Virginians are fed up with the chaos, cruelty, and corruption coming out of Washington. Now it’s on us. Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ballot this November.

As Governor Wes Moore said in FXBG today, we’ve got just 30 days and a wake-up until Election Day. Thank you to every incredible volunteer knocking doors, making calls, and talking to voters across the district. This is how we win.

Too many young men and boys are struggling in silence. This Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, I’m continuing my work to confront the growing crisis of screen addiction and understand its toll on mental health, families, and our young people’s futures.

Virginia families and businesses should not be forced to foot the bill for data center development. That’s why I supported legislation to protect ratepayers by making data centers pay their fair share.

Nothing beats getting out in the community and talking directly with Virginia voters. This weekend, I had a great time at the annual Dumfries Block Party alongside Senator Mark Warner and local leaders.

China provided Iran with intelligence that likely led to the deaths of U.S. service members. I joined my fellow veterans in the U.S. House in urging the president to stop downplaying Beijing’s role and hold Xi accountable this week. Instead, he once again let him off the hook.

September is Sickle Cell Awareness Month. I’m leading the Candis King Hope for Sickle Cell Families Act, named in honor of a young Virginian we lost far too soon to this disease. Our bill would restore a program that helped researchers improve care for people living with sickle cell disease.

Our veterans earned more than our gratitude. They earned quality, timely care. Yet long waits for mental health appointments at the VA Health Care Center in Spotsylvania continue to stand in the way. This Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, I’m fighting for the care our veterans deserve.

As a 25-year Army veteran, I know every casualty represents a family forever changed. The Trump administration has a duty to be honest about the true human cost of their war with Iran. Concealing the number of Americans killed or wounded is an insult to those who served and sacrificed.

Trump abused his authority by allowing ICE and CBP to operate without accountability. This lack of oversight resulted in the horrific deaths of Renée Good, Alex Pretti, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, and Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero. The American people deserve to know where their lawmakers stand.

The government has no business interfering in a woman’s health care decisions. I will always stand up for a woman’s right to abortion and reproductive care and fight to protect the freedom to make those deeply personal decisions.

25 years ago, I watched in horror as the Twin Towers fell on 9/11. I was soon activated as a reservist, and later went on to serve on active duty, forever changed by that day. Today, my thoughts are with those we lost on 9/11 and in the wars that followed. We will never forget their sacrifice.

Serving in Congress should not be part of a get-rich-quick scheme. This is exactly why I'm leading legislation to ban Members of Congress, Supreme Court Justices, and senior federal officials from trading stocks and using prediction markets.

When Pearl Harbor was attacked, Doris Miller put himself in harms’ way to defend his fellow sailors and his nation.  His story is one of extraordinary bravery, service, and pure patriotism.  That’s why I’m backing an effort to keep the name of the USS Doris Miller as is.

I sold my stocks before I came to Congress because I came here to serve Virginians, not line my own pockets. Now I’m leading a bill to require Members of Congress, Cabinet officials, and federal judges to do the same: sell your stocks or step down.

It was great to join NoVA Labor this Labor Day weekend! Working people in Virginia deserve a Congress that has their backs. This November, we’re going to elect a pro-worker majority and restore accountability in Washington.

Happy Labor Day, Virginia! My dad’s union benefits helped my family achieve the American Dream. I know firsthand what strong unions can mean for working families. This November, let’s elect a pro-worker majority that will fight for higher wages, better benefits, and workers’ rights.

Team Vindman was out in full force in Madison County yesterday! We talked with local leaders and law enforcement about the issues that matter most to our communities and how we can keep working together to deliver for Virginians. We’re showing up everywhere and listening to the people we serve.

I’m honored to be endorsed by the Committee to Protect Health Care! In Congress, I’m fighting to lower health care costs, protect and expand coverage, and defend access to reproductive care. I’ll never stop fighting to protect Virginians’ health care and bring down the costs families are facing.

Can you imagine calling out of work 62 times? Because Republicans have now canceled 62 of the 257 scheduled voting days this Congress. That’s nearly 1 in 4 days they could have spent working to lower costs for the American people canceled because they can’t govern.

The Big Ugly Bill slashed food assistance from hungry children to pay for tax breaks for billionaires. I’m fighting back to protect SNAP, lower costs, and make sure families can put food on the table. Our government should work for working people, not just the wealthiest Americans.

Trump is trying to silence your voice and undermine your vote because he knows that prices are up and his policies are unpopular. We will fight this — and the American people will be heard loud and clear on Election Day.

We all know vote-by-mail is safe and secure. Even Trump voted by mail just last month. But a whistleblower just disclosed that USPS is defying a court order and secretly implementing Trump’s “flawed” and “untested” effort to restrict mail-in ballots.

Public education helped make my family’s American Dream possible. Now, my own children have been raised attending Virginia public schools. I know what strong schools can do. I’m fighting to make sure they are fully funded so every child has the opportunity to succeed.

When my family most needed refuge, the United States opened its doors and gave us the chance to build a better life. Pausing all immigrant visa applications punishes those who followed all of the rules. I will fight to oppose these pauses and protect the American Dream for families like mine.

My dad immigrated to this country in pursuit of the American Dream. Our family relied on subsidized housing, public education, and my dad’s union benefits to punch our ticket to the middle class. I’m running to make sure that same American Dream remains within reach for every family.

Americans are paying more at the pump. Eighteen U.S. service members have lost their lives. Hundreds more have been wounded. And after all that sacrifice, this war has made neither America nor the Middle East safer. It's time to bring this war to an end.
