Richmond, Virginia – September 9, 2022   Today, Attorney General Jason Miyares is taking another important step toward securing our elections by establishing an Election Integrity Unit within the Office of the Attorney General.

Republican Party of Virginia Statement on Joe Biden’s Dangerous and Divisive Speech

RICHMOND, VA – Sept. 2, 2022 Last night, Joe Biden used the worst tactics of authoritarians and dictators throughout history to try and intimidate Democrats’ political opponents into silence. From the alarming use of United States Marines as political props to his dangerous and divisive rhetoric labeling anyone who disagrees with him as a “threat to democracy,” Joe Biden showed why he is unfit to lead our country.   This fall, voters will send a message to Democrats that their scare tactics and hunger for power have no place in a free country like ours. It’s time to send a

Republican Party of Virginia on EV Sale Regulation

RICHMOND, VA – August 26, 2022 As of 2035 regulations are requiring all vehicles sold in Virginia to be electric. Sales of non-electric vehicles will be banned. Democrats in Virginia chose to incorporate California vehicle emission laws ours in the Commonwealth. Because of this, un-elected officials in Sacramento, California (the California Air Resources Board) are making decisions for our families here in the Commonwealth. Not only does the necessary infrastructure not exist in Virginia to support this outrageous policy, but the question of affordability is one that we need to be painfully aware of. Democrats in Congress recently voted to

Republican Party of Virginia on Fairfax County Training Documents

RICHMOND, VA – August 26, 2022 The Republican Party of Virginia stands with our leaders in Richmond, echoing that school administration officials should not be keeping secrets from parents.

Fox News has reported that some new training materials provided to teachers show that students can change their name and pronouns without parental notification, and use locker rooms and

Republican Party of Virginia Statement on Biden Signing “Inflation Reduction Act”

Richmond, VA – Aug 17, 2022 Biden’s decision to sign the Inflation Reduction Act and raise taxes during a time that all Americans are hurting is a dismissive action by Radical Democrats that hurts all individuals, especially the middle class. Thankfully, our Commonwealth has a Governor that is doing everything in his power to alleviate some of this pain for Virginia families by cutting taxes and focusing on steady income to Virginia families so that they can provide for their families without any fear. We must elect Republicans in November to see any hope for change in our country and

Yesli is a strong conservative who will fight for our shared values in Congress and defeat Radical Democrat Abigail Spanberger.  Though Rep.
