Press release | The Stafford County Democratic Committee elected a diverse new leadership team following their reorganization caucus today. Every two years, the committee must dissolve and elect new members according to rules set by the Democratic Party of Virginia.

Benjamin M. Litchfield, the previous Chairman, was reelected without opposition. “I believe we have made great progress in the past two years,” Litchfield said, commenting on the recent elections of Delegate Joshua G. Cole and Griffis-Widewater Supervisor Tinesha Allen. “Our challenges this year are even greater and we cannot skip a beat. So, we’re getting right back to work. I am very eager to work with this team and think we can do great things together.”

On January 6, we were the first to tell you doctors at Rappahannock Women’s Health Center will no longer deliver babies at Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg.

The OB-GYN is one of the largest in the region, and will now deliver at Spotsylvania Regional Medical Center in Spotsylvania County on February 8. Now, we’ve seen additional tours of the hospital for expectant parents added the hospital’s website in advance of the change.
