We’re introducing the Moving Virginia Forward agenda to continue tackling affordability, data center and AI company accountability, small business prosperity, education and apprenticeship access, and the safety of our kids and communities.
These proposals are the next step in our work to create a stronger, safer, more affordable Commonwealth. That is what it means to be #MovingVirginiaForward.
Virginia is home to hundreds of thousands of Veterans, active-duty service members, and military families who know the weight of that sacrifice and the enduring meaning of service.
To every Veteran, and to every military family represented across Virginia, thank you.

Congressman Whitehurst lived a long and impactful life in service to Virginia and the United States of America. From his days in the Navy to his career as an educator, he was a true servant to his community and to our nation. My thoughts are with his friends, family, and community at this time.
Today, and every day, I join Virginians across the Commonwealth in honoring the generations of Americans who have answered the call to serve with extraordinary courage, dedication, and professionalism. Virginia is home to hundreds of thousands of Veterans, active-duty service members, and military families who know the weight of that sacrifice and the enduring meaning of service.
On Veterans Day, we renew our commitment to making sure that those who have served have our strongest possible support and can access the healthcare, resources, and job opportunities they’ve earned. We are also reminded of the families who stand beside our veterans, making sacrifices of their own, and providing the support and encouragement that help those in uniform transition back to civilian life.
To every Veteran, and to every military family represented across Virginia, thank you. Your service matters. Your sacrifices matter. And your future here in Virginia matters. Our Commonwealth and our country are forever indebted to you.
🚨 NEW: Today, myself and legislators are coming together to announce the “Moving Virginia Forward” agenda for 2027. We are:
✅ tackling affordability and the cost of living.
✅ holding data centers and AI companies accountable.
✅ supporting small business growth and prosperity.
✅ prioritizing the safety of our kids and communities.
✅ investing in education and apprenticeships.

Virginia is putting clear standards in place for data centers and their backup-generators. We are ensuring that what has been permitted in years past is not permitted into the future, better protecting Virginian families from data center diesel backup generators.

From the drought to the Trump Administration's tariffs and high diesel prices, farmers and producers across the Commonwealth are hurting.
That's why I've worked to provide relief where I can: declaring a state of emergency to support the industry, authorizing the use of dyed diesel, and pushing back against the trade war and imported beef.
Our farmers and producers deserve a government that listens, stands with them, and works together to deliver real solutions.
It’s open enrollment in Virginia!
Thanks to our new Premium Savings program, as many as 200,000 Virginians will see hundreds of dollars of savings on their health insurance — with some seeing their monthly premiums lowered by as much as 90 percent.
I encourage every family across the Commonwealth to see if the Virginia Premium Savings program would help them lower their healthcare costs.

If you work full time in Virginia, you should be able to live in Virginia.
You should be able to keep up with your rent or your mortgage, fill your medications, and save for your kids’ futures.
That’s why we are raising Virginia’s minimum wage to $15 an hour. We’re investing in our workforce and our neighbors who power our economy.

Women across the Commonwealth play a vital role in powering Virginia agriculture — our number one private industry.
Wonderful to be in Charlottesville today to recognize all they do to keep Virginia agriculture strong during the International Year of the Woman Farmer!
President Trump's "triumphal arch" would cast a literal shadow on Arlington National Cemetery — a place of solemn remembrance to generations of American heroes who have given their life in service to our country.
That's why Virginia filed this lawsuit to attempt to block this unlawful construction from proceeding.

Arlington National Cemetery is the final resting place of generations of Americans who have answered the call to defend the promise of our nation.
President Trump's proposed 250-foot arch would literally cast a shadow on this hallowed ground and overshadow the legacy of the generations of courageous men and women who are laid to rest at Arlington.
