This is not a new fight now we’re in.

I support common-sense solutions regardless of party that will help us ensure the health and prosperity of our treasured natural resources.

Virginia’s waterways, from the Chesapeake Bay to our inland rivers, are vital to our economy, our environment, and our way of life.

The State Boating Act ensures that states can continue to fund critical programs like search and rescue, boating safety, and waterway protection without unnecessary federal interference.

Allowing these tax credits to lapse without a clear path forward would risk real harm to those we represent.

I’m urging the Speaker and our House leadership to immediately pass my bill to ensure our servicemembers, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck while supporting their families, receive the pay they’ve earned.

We cannot allow that to continue.

To put it simply, we cannot afford to undervalue the essential contributions our nurses make at this pivotal moment.

This is the change that Americans voted for in November.

I think everybody needs to take a deep breath. I know there’s a lot of change right now.
