Gerry Connolly: “Please stop making this a political talking point. This is about life and death.”

One of the best decisions I ever made.

Cannot continue to provide offensive weaponry to a government if it refuses to respect the laws of war.

I will do everything possible to continue to represent my constituents for the remainder of my term.

With no rancor and a full heart, I move into this final chapter full of pride in what we’ve accomplished together over 30 years.
