Friends, we’re in another critical election year.
After a hard-fought 2024 and the chaotic initial weeks of Trump’s lawless second term, I know that may sound exhausting.
But the 2025 elections in Virginia represent the country’s first major chance to stand up to the Trump Administration and send a national message of condemnation of Trump’s failures.
This November, Virginia will hold elections for governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, and the House of Delegates — our first electoral opportunity to show that Democrats are still fired up and ready to fight for our values.
Virginia is a unique place, politically. We may have gone blue in the past few presidential elections, but right now, Republicans control all three statewide offices. Our statewide elections historically have proven that we are a true battleground, and right now, it’s critical that Democrats don’t cede an inch.
I love Virginia — I’ve called it home for more than four decades. Anne and I settled our family and raised three great kids here, and I’ve been proud to serve the people of this Commonwealth throughout my entire adult life.
That’s why this year — right now — I am committing to you that I will help lead the fight to flip Virginia blue and support our great VA Democrats who are running in 2025. [[link removed]]
Today, I’m asking you to do the same, and commit to joining me in this fight.
There are a lot of ways you can take part:
* You can sign your name to say you’re on the team [[link removed]] .
* You can chip in a contribution to my Common Ground PAC to help fund the work we’ll be doing around the state [[link removed]] .
* You can give me a follow on social media like Facebook [[link removed]] , Instagram [[link removed]] , or Twitter/X [[link removed]] to stay updated on our work.
* Or you could forward this email to a friend or neighbor to get them involved.
I’ll be laser-focused on supporting VA Democrats throughout the coming year, and no matter how you choose to help, having you on this team is a really important part of flipping our Commonwealth blue and sending a message to the GOP all around the country that Democrats remain strong.
Virginia’s statewide elections always fall one year after presidential elections — and since 1980, we have elected a Governor of the opposite party from the new president almost every time.
This year, it’s more important than ever before that we make sure that happens again — to send a message that Virginia will stand up for the American people and protect our democracy .
Time and again, this team has shown up when it matters most — and your contributions have led to victories in Virginia cycle after cycle. With your help, this year will be no different, so I’m incredibly grateful for your support.
