Virginia is home to two history-making leaders who are not waiting for change; they are driving it. US Representative Jennifer McClellan, the first Black woman to represent Virginia in Congress, brings nearly two decades of results to the table: more than 370 pieces of legislation passed, voting rights expanded, reproductive healthcare protected, and clean energy advanced. She does not govern on noise. She governs on outcomes!
Lieutenant Governor Ghazala Hashmi, the first Muslim woman elected to statewide office in the United States, built her leadership in Virginia’s classrooms before taking it to the statehouse. Steady, focused, and purpose-driven, she does not just represent change; she expands what leadership looks like.
Prince William County detectives charged J’Shaun Zomari Williams on March 23 in connection with the fatal shooting of an 18-year-old man at Potomac Shores on March 9, marking the most recent development in the ongoing murder investigation.
Detectives took Williams into custody with assistance from the U.S. Marshal’s Task Force in Richmond. This arrest follows two prior arrests in the case.
A recent crash in Nokesville has claimed another life on Prince William County’s rural roads, marking the fourth high-speed fatality in the Brentsville District in just two years.
On Saturday, March 14, a 2010 Chevrolet Corvette struck a tree after running off the road at high speed.
