John,
National politicians get the most press coverage, but it's often statewide leaders like governors, attorneys general, and lieutenant governors who make the decisions that directly impact our daily lives. When Democratic pro-choice leaders hold these critical offices, their constituents reap real, tangible benefits to their rights and protections.
That's why we're proud to endorse three exceptional leaders fighting to protect Virginians' fundamental freedoms — Abigail Spanberger for governor, Shannon Taylor for attorney general, and Ghazala Hashmi for lieutenant governor.
Rep. Abigail Spanberger (VA-GOV) is ready to become Virginia's first woman governor. In Congress, she's fought tirelessly for Virginians — lowering costs, creating jobs, and defending reproductive rights. A former CIA case officer and federal law enforcement officer, Abigail's career has been driven by public service and a commitment to keeping Americans safe. She can undo Glenn Youngkin's extremist agenda and give Virginia the pro-choice leadership it wants and deserves.
State Sen. Ghazala Hashmi (VA-LG) has been a trailblazer in Virginia's Senate, serving on committees focused on health, education, and local government. While Republicans sought to restrict reproductive health care, state Sen. Hashmi led efforts to protect contraception access. She's fighting to ensure that future generations, including her two daughters, enjoy more rights — not fewer.
Shannon Taylor (VA-AG) has 28 years of courtroom experience, and has led one of Virginia's largest prosecutorial offices as Henrico County's commonwealth's attorney since 2012. In a political atmosphere where Republicans are working tirelessly to attack our rights, Shannon will champion justice and safeguard Virginians' rights from day one as attorney general.
