I've launched my re-election campaign

  Folks, I’m honored to announce the kickoff of my re-election campaign to continue representing the people of Virginia in the U.S. Senate! While we still don’t know who my GOP opponent will be, one thing is clear: The Republicans who have lined up to oppose me have all aligned…

The 2025 race begins today

  Glenn Youngkin continues his record of not only giving away our tax dollars to billionaires, but he has aligned himself with the furthest right fringes of the Republican Party. There’s no room for error in undoing the damage Youngkin has done, so we’re building the infrastructur…

Last election

Virginia’s 2023 election was too close for comfort. Governor Youngkin was ready to sign an abortion ban in our Commonwealth if the GOP won, so taking back control of the Virginia Legislature was our only option. Which is exactly what we did.   Friend, Virginia’s 2023 election was too…

a bloodbath

When the GOP nominee for President forecasts a ‘bloodbath’ if he loses, we have to take him seriously. Trump already sent a violent mob of Nazis and White Supremacists to Charlottesville, Virginia. Trump already sent a violent mob of MAGA extremists to storm the Capital and attack our Democracy.…

it’s going to be Trump

With Super Tuesday behind us and Haley out of the race, it’s become clear that Trump will be the GOP nominee. To think that a man so publicly anti-Democracy could yet again become commander in chief is terrifying. Which is why the DPVA is going to do absolutely everything in our power to make su…
