John,
Statewide officials are one of our strongest lines of defense against Trump and his dangerous agenda.
Governors and lieutenant governors play a crucial role in holding the Trump administration accountable, defending our fundamental rights, and challenging executive overreach.
That's why we're proud to endorse two exceptional leaders fighting to protect Virginians and standing up to GOP chaos: Abigail Spanberger for governor and Ghazala Hashmi for lieutenant governor.
Right now, these offices are held by Republicans bowing to Trump and pushing a reckless agenda that threatens the freedom and security of their constituents. Together, in just 47 days, we can change that.
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.
Ghazala Hashmi (VA-LG) has been a leader in so many of Virginia's toughest fights. In the most recent legislative session alone, she carried bills protecting the right to contraception, increasing public school funding, and protecting Medicaid expansion from Trump's attacks, and she'll continue that leadership as lieutenant governor. She's fighting to ensure that future generations, including her two daughters, enjoy more rights — not fewer.
