United States Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger is calling for an investigation into this week’s I-95 fiasco.

In a letter to current Governor Ralph Northam and Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin, Spanberger requests a full-scale, multi-agency “After Action Report” to get to the bottom of what led to motorists being stranded on the snowy highway for 24 hours.

She’s asking for a full account of what went wrong and recommendations on how to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.
