I’m running for Congress in Virginia’s 5th District because families and workers deserve a fair shot.
Costs keep rising while salaries aren’t - and MAGA Republicans in Congress are cutting food & health care to fund corporate tax breaks instead of defending Virginia’s families.
Thank you, Virginia, for this wonderful affirmation of our values and our rights.
We sent a message to the rest of the country on how to win and how to stand up for everyday people.
It’s days like this why I love my community, I love my country, and I love my Commonwealth.

Thank you so much to @jonesjay and his campaign team for visiting us in Mason District.
I could not be more excited about Jay's candidacy and his vision for protecting Virginians over the next four years.
Jay inspires, works hard, and gets results. He'll make an incredible AG.
Standing room only tonight in Alexandria! Grateful for the energy, the questions, and the commitment to making Virginia a better place for all. Let’s keep the momentum going!
I was deeply honored to introduce @jonesjay to a crowd of more than 50 neighbors and friends at a meet-and-greet hosted by our Huddle Group here in Mason District.
The attendance and energy levels were sky high--Virginians are more-than-ready to answer back statewide in 2025.
I was delighted to be featured in this interview with @geomasonlrev to discuss winning the Antonin G. Scalia Writing Award for the top comment in 2022-23.
It's the absolute highlight of my time in law school.
Looking forward to sharing my piece when it's published this Fall.
I think I speak for everyone who has ever had the chance to work with Alvaro when I say the country is getting a deeply knowledgeable, thoughtful, and downright good human being to take on this very consequential role.
A fantastic appointment.

And yes, KBJ really is that warm, thoughtful, down-to-earth person she's portrayed to be. I cannot wait for the nation to get to know her even better.
And knowing that Casey got to play a role in helping someone that special make it to the top--there's no way I could be prouder.
KBJ's confirmation to the Supreme Court is a celebration for so many reasons, but for my little family, it's been made even more joyous thanks to my wife Casey, who both clerked for KBJ and put in the work to support KBJ during the confirmation process.
I married a good one!

More than anything, Helen loved life and being alive.
It’s the part of her legacy that will resound deepest: there is no greater blessing than loving one’s life and rejoicing in every moment of it you can.
We love her and already miss her so much.
On January 31st, just days after celebrating her 103rd birthday, my grandmother Helen Kronrad Coplan passed away surrounded by loved ones in South Carolina.
Please join me in celebrating her remarkable life and the bountiful legacy she leaves.
Helen was a woman of deep faith who attended synagogue her entire life.
Even at 100, she was known for holding up the line for the Torah during Shabbat, bringing the rabbi her way by waving him over and saying in her South Carolina accent, “Good shabbos, darlin’!”
