Today marks 6 years since the Saudi Crown Prince directed the murder of VA resident and journalist Jamal Khashoggi. As we honor his memory, we must recommit to protecting reporters around the world—many of whom risk their lives—as they share the truth and promote accountability.

I’m grateful @potus , following advocacy from @MarkWarner , @RepMGriffith and me, approved VA’s request for more federal support to areas in Virginia impacted by Hurricane Helene. I’ll continue to work with local, state, and federal partners on recovery efforts.

I’m glad @POTUS approved an Emergency Declaration to bring federal resources to communities in VA recovering from Hurricane Helene. More help is needed. That’s why @MarkWarner , @RepMGriffith and I are pushing for another federal designation to bring even more support to VA.

I’m grateful to the Virginians, first responders and local leaders in Damascus, Marion, and Galax who met with me today to talk about the damage caused by Hurricane Helene. I’ll keep working to ensure our communities receive the full support they need to recover.

Update: The Emergency Declaration has been granted, which means more resources are on the way to support debris removal and restore power to critical infrastructure, including drinking water and wastewater treatment facilities, hospitals, and emergency response centers.

Today I wrote to President Biden alongside @MarkWarner and @RepMGriffith to support an Emergency Declaration for Virginia following the significant damage caused by remnants of Hurricane Helene. I will keep doing all that I can to support Virginians impacted by the storm.

Happy National Public Lands Day! As an outdoorsman, I encourage you to get outside and explore the beauty of Virginia's natural landscapes by visiting national parks for free today. We must continue to protect public lands so they can be enjoyed for generations to come.

As a former fair housing attorney, I’m focused on solving the affordable housing crisis. In Wednesday’s Budget Committee hearing I spoke with experts—including the CEO of @BHC_RVA —on bipartisan solutions to help more Virginians find affordable housing.

Clean energy industries are good for our economy, Virginia's talented workforce, and the environment. That’s why I voted to pass the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which are bringing projects and hundreds of clean energy jobs to the Commonwealth.
