Hospital-based violence intervention programs are critical in helping survivors recover and preventing future violence. I’ll work to protect these grants for hospitals across Virginia as your next Attorney General. virginiamercury.com/briefs/virgini…

As Attorney General, my top priority will be keeping Virginia families safe. Whether it’s fighting violent crime, cracking down on illegal guns, or protecting Virginia against the Trump administration, I’ll step up to defend families across the Commonwealth.

Virginia’s economy is under attack. Trump has illegally fired thousands of VA workers and put 300,000 more at risk – and as AGs across the country work to save jobs, @JasonMiyaresVA is doing nothing. As AG, I’ll fight back against federal attacks and protect Virginia jobs.

The Attorney General is meant to protect and defend Virginians’ civil rights – yet @JasonMiyaresVA took part in an effort to purge voter rolls to support Trump's reelection. Unlike my opponent, I’ll put people before politics to ensure that no Virginian is discriminated against.

A majority of Virginians oppose Trump’s “Big, Ugly Bill” and have “very serious concerns” about cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. @JasonMiyaresVA refused to join a lawsuit to protect Virginians’ healthcare – and Virginians will show him the door this November. …giniapoliticalnewsletter.substack.com/p/majority-of-…

In Virginia, the average renter comes up 50% short of affording an apartment for their family without being rent-burdened. @JasonMiyaresVA has failed to hold price-gouging landlords accountable. As AG, I’ll fight to make housing more affordable. nlihc.org/sites/default/…

I stand in solidarity with the workers at Norfolk Botanical Garden as they organize with @IAM_Union Local 10. Our unions are critical in making sure that Virginia workers receive the protections, opportunity, and pay they deserve – and a voice to fight for themselves.

My dad would’ve been 71 today - I miss him deeply but I know he’s smiling upon us. I draw strength each day knowing that he’s still my number one fan.

Virginia is the only state where unemployment rose in June – the sixth straight monthly increase. Trump’s federal job cuts are wrecking Virginia’s workforce, and @JasonMiyaresVA is doing nothing to stop it. We need an AG who will fight to protect jobs – not pander to Trump.

As the son of prosecutors, I know how critical it is to support our law enforcement officers – that’s why I helped fund pay raises for officers as a delegate. I’ll continue supporting Virginia’s officers by ensuring they have the resources needed to keep our communities safe.

Wonderful Sunday at Sixth Mount Zion Church celebrating @revtyronenelson's 20th pastoral anniversary.

July is National Park and Recreation Month. One of my favorite Virginia destinations, Shenandoah National Park, is suffering under the Trump administration’s federal layoffs. As Attorney General, I’ll fight to protect our federal workers and our beautiful national parks.

One of the AG's core duties is defending Virginians from federal overreach. Yet while Trump attacks Virginia’s public schools, @JasonMiyaresVA has stood by in silence – failing to protect our children, teachers, and universities. Politics that punishes children is unacceptable.

Couldn’t agree more. Abigail and Ghazala have always put people over politics — and that’s exactly what Virginians deserve. Let’s get to work!

Trump’s Medicaid cuts pose a “significant threat to rural hospitals” in VA, and @JasonMiyaresVA has rolled over and let it happen. Virginians deserve an AG who will fight for accessible, affordable healthcare – not one focused on political allegiances. pilotonline.com/2025/07/15/med…

Today, we honor the legacy of Congressman John Lewis – a fearless champion for justice and equality whose life embodied courage, conviction, and the power of “good trouble.” We must carry on his fight for justice and his vision for a stronger nation.

This November's elections will decide if Virginians get to enshrine abortion rights in our state constitution. I've fought to expand reproductive rights for women and families, and unlike my anti-abortion opponent, I’ll defend those rights as AG. 19thnews.org/2025/07/virgin…

It's unacceptable that SCOTUS is letting the Trump administration gut the Department of Education. Now more than ever, it's critical that we stand up for our children's education. As AG, I will be at the forefront of the fight for their future. washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/…

Another day, another lawsuit @JasonMiyaresVA skipped out on at the expense of Virginia families and students. Read my full statement:

Thank you to Gethsemane Community Fellowship Church for having me at this morning's service! Grateful for the warm welcome and honored to speak to the congregation.
