The murders of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Texas last week and a 26-year-old man in Maine this week are reprehensible and, sadly, the latest examples of how ICE continues to show contempt for the rule of law and operate with impunity. (1/2) www.usnews.com/news/top-new...

Today marks 158 years since the 14th Amendment was ratified. As we've seen with Trump's recent attempt to end birthright citizenship, it's important now more than ever that we recognize that ALL American-born children ARE Americans and guaranteed equal rights in our constitution.

Summer is in full swing! See the following for some quick reminders on how to stay safe and stay cool these next few months ☀️ 💧

Three weeks ago today, I was proud to join @pew.org to share how Virginia is leading the South to get more distributed energy resources online to lower costs for families, reduce strain on the grid, and invest in clean, renewable energy infrastructure. (1/2)

Today is July 1st, which means all Virginia laws passed during the 2026 GA session and signed by her ✨excellency ✨ Governor @abigailspanberger.com are now law! I was so proud of all we accomplished this year, with 20 of my bills sent to the Governor's desk, a personal best! (1/3)

SCOTUS rejects Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship 🙌 what a win for the US Constitution 🇺🇸

The Supreme Court just closed the door on President Trump’s day one attempt to end birthright citizenship. The president doesn’t have the power to rewrite the Constitution.

“You don’t look like a politician!” Yeah, that’s kind of the whole point…..

#IreneForVA Irene is the voice of a new generation of leaders! 🙏💙🇺🇸

Democrats need to stand up as the opposition party. This is our moment for real generational change. I’m not afraid to stand up to defend our democracy and shape our government to be more reflective of the people.

This is a moment of generational change in the Democratic party. We need to change our mindset, try something new, and elect leaders who can connect with voters over the same lived experiences.

Establishment leaders aren’t rising to meet this pivotal moment. I’m running for Congress to rebuild the ashes of what Trump is burning down, while creating a new vision for our future.

“Given her experience as a Delegate in the General Assembly, we believe Irene will help us build a more just economy and restore trust in our public institutions.” Trust in our government is at an all time low, but I know we can get back on track. Thank you Korean Americans for Organizing!

“Delegate Shin has been a reliable champion for workers, leading the fight for collective bargaining rights for public employees, including home care providers, so more people have a voice on the job.” Public employees keep VA-11 (and the country) running. Thank you, SEIU 512!

“These challenging times call for new leadership and clear vision. That’s what Irene brings to the table.” Welcome to #TeamIrene @jcole4va.bsky.social

“While the Trump Administration is wreaking havoc on our country, it’s clear we need principled, effective leaders who won’t back down from tough fights and always put our communities first.” Thank you @kathykltran.bsky.social‬!

“Irene is tenacious, principled, and driven to serve her constituents.” Ghazala Hashmi is a trailblazer and an inspiration. I’m honored to have her support in this race!

Donald Trump cannot be allowed to start another forever war in the Middle East. In Congress, I would support Sen. @kaine.senate.gov’s War Powers Resolution to stop this.
