Janet Howell was a lioness of the legislature, a wonderful person, and a role model for all women who served in the General Assembly. I was so lucky to call her a mentor and genuine friend. My thoughts are with everyone who had the privilege to know and love her.

It was so fun celebrating @SpanbergerForVA’s inauguration this weekend with Andrew, my sister, and brother-in-law! Abigail was a great Congresswoman and she’s going to be an even better Governor. I’m so lucky to call her my friend. Congrats, Abigail!

Congratulations to our next Governor, @SpanbergerForVA!! I’ve seen Abigail’s fierce commitment to making life better for Virginians since we first ran for Congress in 2018. She’s been a great friend and even better public servant. She’s going to be a fantastic Governor!

Gerry Connolly was a friend and a mentor to me, someone who I could always count on to have my back and be by my side. I’m devastated by his death. Northern Virginia lost a true champion today. My heart goes out to his family, staff, and the people of #VA11.

I hope my PSP journey helps raise awareness of the need to do more to tackle this terrible disease and bring comfort to those battling it. PSP has taken a lot from me, but it has not taken away my resolve. I shared my story and advocacy in @washingtonian.washingtonian.com/2024/12/31…
