Hi, it’s Ghazala Hashmi.
June of 2025 was one of the most exciting, challenging, and rewarding months of my professional life.
Thanks to you, I won the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor in one of the closest elections in Virginia’s history — less than half a percentage point. |
Our campaign also had its strongest fundraising month, by far. With over 1,400 individual contributions, our movement is picking up steam at the perfect time.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
At the same time, June presented many challenges. Donald Trump’s authoritarian tendencies are only getting worse. And Republicans in Congress are on the brink of passing one of the worst budgets in modern history. Over 17 million Americans are poised to lose health care. 322,984 are in Virginia. The bill will lead to debt, devastation, and death, and bankrupt Virginia’s hospitals and healthcare systems. The only thing we can do now is keep fighting. And here’s the good news: I believe that this November, we can win in Virginia and send a loud message to the Trump Administration that Democrats are back on their feet and won’t be pushed around any longer.
If you want to help me continue the fight against Trump’s policies, please consider setting up a monthly recurring donation to my campaign. It’s the best way to sustain your support and helps us plan and budget for the next five months.
