I’m honored to have earned the endorsement of Save Rural Loudoun — a community of citizens dedicated to protecting our farms, history, and natural resources. Together, we’ll push back on data center development and transmission lines, fight to conserve more land, and work to protect our groundwater.

Jobless rates in Virginia are rising fastest in populous, Democratic localities. That’s a problem for Republicans.
