With an eye toward future political aspirations, Representative Abigail Spanberger (D) of Virginia’s 7th Congressional District is set to host a telephone town hall on Thursday, May 16, from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
The town hall, a staple of political engagement for elected officials, comes following a security breach at Quantico Marine Corps Base, located within her district boundaries. On May 3, two men inside a box truck, claiming to work for Amazon, tried to run the gate and were stopped by military police, and turned over to ICE.
Congress today passed bill H.R.8035, known as the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, which gives $61 billion in assistance to Ukraine. This includes funds for various forms of aid, such as military, economic, and humanitarian support.
Locally, Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-7th District, Prince William, Stafford, Fredericksburg), and Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-10, Prince William, Manassas) supported the measure. Rep. Ben Cline (R-6th, Roanoke) and Bob Good (R-5th, Lynchburg) were among 112 Republicans who opposed the measure.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, April 9, community leaders and residents of Prince William County will gather for a significant milestone in local infrastructure development. U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger, representing Virginia’s 7th congressional district, will join Prince William County officials for a press conference marking the securing of $2.5 million in funding for an interchange at Minnieville Road and Prince William Parkway.
Recently signed into law, the funding is earmarked for constructing an interchange and other enhancements at the intersection of Minnieville Road and Prince William Parkway.
Prince William County told its residents Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.7th) will be in Woodbridge On Tuesday, April 9, 2024.
It’s the latest stop for Spanberger, who is on a regional tour presenting ceremonial checks with her congressional office logo and doling out federal funds for transportation projects. Last week, Spanbeger presented a ceremonial check for $1.7 million to Stafford County supervisors.
