The outlook for Abigail Spanberger (D) is looking better in her race to keep Virginia's 7th Congressional seat. The Cook Political Report today moved Spanberger's race against Republican Yesli Vega, a Prince William Board of County Supervisor member, from "toss-up to "lean Democratic."
The move comes on the heels of Democrats' successes in recent weeks, passing the Inflation Reduction Act, which addresses climate change, hiring 87,000 more IRS agents to audit citizens and small businesses, transferring some student loan debt to U.S. taxpayers and away from the borrower, and raiding the home of a former U.S. President Donald Trump to secure classified documents.

The two-term incumbent Democrat sent a letter to Youngkin demanding answers to how his administration is working to prevent another shutdown of Interstate 95 during a snowstorm like Virginia experienced on January 3, 2022.
Drivers were stranded along a 50-mile stretch of highway between Dumfries and Carmel Church, near Kings Dominion, for more than 12 hours without food, water, heat, and access to restrooms. Specifically, Spanberger wants to know how Youngkin is implementing recommendations outlined in an April report to prevent another disaster from occurring.

Yesli Vega pushed for more police officers this past spring when the Board of County Supervisors passed its largest budget in history -- $3.8 billion -- in April 2022.
Instead, the Democrat-controlled Board of County Supervisors provided funding to hire 15 new civilians, returning the uniformed officers working the desk jobs to the streets.
