“Our National Guard makes Virginia a place we are all proud to call home.
Thank you for answering the call – the call to protect Virginia and our nation
on this critically important mission,” Governor Glenn Youngkin
<[link removed]>
This week, Governor Youngkin joined Fox & Friends from the Juke Box Diner in
Manassas to discuss how Virginia is taking action to combat the decades of
progress lost due to the actions of progressive liberals in Virginia during the
COVID pandemic. Governor Youngkin is standing for parents and students instead
of bending to the will of the teacher's unions!
"The kids belong to parents," Governor Youngkin said. "Not to the state, not
to politicians. They belong to parents."

League at Capital One Park in Tysons Corner! Where he also enjoyed some amazing
baseball, America’s favorite pastime!

work lives. Learn more about Tech For Troops:[link removed]

The First Lady joined Secretary of Veterans and Defense Affairs Craig Crenshaw
and other Administration leaders at the Virginia War Memorial in honor of July
Fourth. There, she helped volunteers from across the Commonwealth as they
placed 12,000 American flags into the hillside – a nod to the 12,000 Virginians
from World War II through the present day who paid the ultimate price for our
country. Learn more about the Department of Veterans Services’ Gold Standard
Digital Hub with resources to support veterans and their families:

On Thursday, Governor Youngkin visited and prayed with the members of the
Virginia National Guard who will assist Texas in a coordinated effort alongside

crisis, save lives, and secure our southern border.

Years before he served as Commander in Chief or as the nation’s first
President, while a colonel in the Virginia militia, a young, regalia-laden
George Washington was painted by Charles Willson Peale.
Reimagined by Virginia artist Hattie Elizabeth Burdette, this 1932 painting
now hangs in the Mansion Dining Room, reminding us of our Founding Fathers who
devoted their lives to establishing our country’s freedoms. To see this
painting for yourself, visit the Executive Mansion for tours on Tuesdays and
Fridays from 10 AM to 2 PM.
