Federal workers should be judged by their performance and service to the American people. That’s why I’m leading the Saving the Civil Service Act to protect Virginia’s federal workers and the services they provide.

  • According to a whistleblower, your Social Security number and information was transferred to a political organization. Under Trump and Elon Musk’s failed DOGE project, Americans’ most sensitive data was put at risk. Who accessed it? How was it used? Who authorized this? The American people deserve answers.
