My story begins right here — in Loudon County — in 1979.

A few years before I was born, my mother, a native of Bengaluru, India, immigrated to the United States to unite with my father and pursue a career in medicine.

My mom came through Dulles Airport — our family’s “Ellis Island.”

My parents taught me early on how important serving your community is. And at every stage of my life, I’ve felt called to action.

I attended college in New Orleans — and when Hurricane Katrina hit, I helped organize volunteers on campus to rebuild.

A few years later, I worked with the Center for Wrongful Convictions to free a man wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for 21 years.

On Capitol Hill, as a policy aide, I helped craft the DREAM Act and the Affordable Care Act and build coalitions in support of these critical bills. And I went on to serve as a policy advisor to President Obama in the White House.

In Richmond, I’ve:

✔️ Taken on Big Pharma, capped prescription drug costs, and fought for medical billing transparency.
✔️ Stopped predatory utility rate and toll increases.
✔️ Protected abortion rights and fought gun violence.

With so much on the line in November, If there’s one thing you need to know about me, it’s this: I’ll always put our community first and never stop fighting for us.

So, if you’re with me, consider making a contribution to Abigail Spanberger and my campaign today.

We’re building a grassroots campaign to keep this district blue, and we need your help.

Thanks for hearing me out,
Suhas
