I'm Beth Macy, author of Dopesick and Paper Girl. In case you missed it, I'm running for Congress right here in VA-06.

 

I have some pretty exciting news: President Obama just put Paper Girl at the top of his favorite books of 2025 list!

I wrote Paper Girl for the same reason I’m running for Congress: Trump’s administration is leaving Americans behind, and someone needs to step up.

 

That’s exactly why we need to fire MAGA extremist Ben Cline, flip this district, and start building resources to improve our country. Can you split a donation between my campaign and Ghazala Hashmi right now?

 

As a journalist and author for forty years, I've always sought to hold power accountable and tell the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable. From covering stories about addiction to offshoring jobs to civil rights, I've never been afraid to ruffle feathers.

 

I've always jumped in headfirst, unafraid to tell the untold stories, and nothing could have prepared me more for this next role. 

 

My whole career has been spent talking to real people about the hard issues — issues of addiction, poverty, gender identity, and abortion. I learned how to research and understand the root cause of those big problems. I’m also not afraid to change my mind when I learn more. 

 

Now I want to apply what I've learned over the years to fixing our broken system.


I can't wait to get started, but I need your support to get there. Can you split a donation between my campaign and Ghazala Hashmi today? $50, $25, or even $10 helps:

Thank you from the bottom of my heart,

Beth
