I’ve devoted my career to ensuring all workers have the chance to achieve the American Dream. From my 12 years as a public servant at the U.S. Department of Labor to my advocacy work at the National Immigration Forum, I’ve been committed to ensuring all families have the same opportunities my family had.

Since first being elected in 2017, I have passed 29 bills. This includes protecting coverage for preexisting conditions, expanding voter access, improving worker’s rights, protecting our waterways, and making Virginia more welcoming and inclusive. I am running for re-election to continue the fight for a just and equitable future for all Virginians.
