Representing Virginia's 8th District

In a massive escalation of its crackdown on independent media, Egyptian authorities today ordered the closure of Mada Masr, Egypt’s leading independent news outlet.

This is a brazen attack on press freedom and an attempt to silence one of the last major independent voices in Egypt. This comes on the heels of the arrest of the entire newsroom from Matsadaash, another independent news outlet, just a few weeks ago.

Egypt must reverse this decision, release all wrongfully detained journalists, and end its assault on the free press.

Here’s how it all adds up to your bottom line:

Donald Trump’s policies have been a disaster for American families. Knowing how unpopular he is, he’s resorting to voter intimidation and attempts to influence our elections to hold on to power.

We won’t let him get away with it. We’ll fight these attacks in court and at the ballot box to ensure American voters decide the outcome of our elections, not Trump.

Virginia's 8th District is fortunate to be home to the Peanut and Tree Nut Processors Association. As the voice of the nut industry, the PTNPA plays a critical role in responsible advocacy, education and food safety.

Just last year, Donald Trump and Republicans’ “truly great healthcare plan” delivered the largest healthcare cuts in American history to fund tax cuts for the wealthy.

More than 8 million Americans have already lost their health insurance, and millions more are at risk.
