WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Representative Abigail Spanberger today released the following statement.

“I want to extend my congratulations to Glenn Youngkin on his victory — and I want to thank the Virginia Department of Elections for their tireless efforts in ensuring a free and fair election. Additionally, I want to thank former Governor McAuliffe for his continued commitment to the workers, families, and communities of Virginia.

“As we continue to recover from the COVID-19 crisis, all Virginians must work together to rebuild our economy and make our communities stronger for the next generation.

“In the weeks and months ahead, I am committed to working with Mr. Youngkin and his staff to find common ground, discuss priorities important to the people of Central Virginia, and — just as I have under the Northam Administration — identify how Congress can work in tandem with our Commonwealth to deliver for our families, seniors, veterans, and small businesses.”
