Making sure you saw this important message

  John—We wanted to make sure you saw this important message from Abigail about yesterday’s Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. It’s now more critical than ever that we elect pro-choice champions like Abigail. Her GOP opponent is celebrating the decision …

Our right to privacy, uprooted

  John, The Supreme Court has made its decision final and overturned 50 years of precedent established by Roe v. Wade. We now face the loss of a woman's right to choose and a complete assault on our constitutional right to privacy. The ramifications of the Supreme Court’s decision are p…

re: Today’s GOP Primary

  John, Today, voters will head to the polls to determine our Republican opponent. Chillingly, our Republican opponents have embraced extreme ideologies that will undermine our democracy. From trying to downplay the impact of the Jan. 6th insurrection to denying it was an i…

This is appalling

Thanks for joining the team!

Dear John,   Thank you so much for joining our campaign newsletter. In 2018, we wanted to change the representation we had here in Virginia. We were driven by the hope that we could bring a voice to the issues that are important to us. Our entire team worked tirelessly to engage voters, talk…

Opposition spending is ramping up

  John, Each election cycle, national Republican and outside spending groups spend enormous amounts to try and unseat Abigail. This cycle is no different. The Congressional Leadership Fund – a PAC dedicated to electing Republicans – has allotted $4.2 million to target Abiga…

No greater vocation than service

  John, When I first ran for Congress in 2018 – flipping this seat blue for the first time in 50 years – I spoke often of a letter my parents wrote to my sisters and me to celebrate the new year 2000. In it, they wrote out lessons for their daughters. One of which has been …

re: Your first contribution

  John, This fall, our campaign will face yet another close race. In 2018, we flipped VA-07 blue for the first time in 50 years and won an incredibly close race. In 2020, we campaigned hard, communicated well, and won by slim margins. This year, we face similar obstacles. N…
