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.
