U.S. Representative Abigail Spanberger is proud to represent the people of Virginia’s Seventh Congressional District in the U.S. House.
Abigail’s career has been defined by public service. She first swore an oath to the U.S. Constitution as a federal agent with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. In this role, she investigated money laundering and narcotics cases — including at the southern border. Then, as a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) case officer, she worked at home and abroad to collect intelligence, keep our country safe from terrorism, and inform policymakers in their national security decisions. Following her time at CIA, Abigail joined the private sector and helped American colleges and universities diversify their student bodies, expand opportunities for Americans entering the workforce, and increase graduation rates.
Strengthening Retirement Security & Protecting Social Security
As Rep. Spanberger meets with seniors across the 7th District, she has heard tragic stories of hardworking Virginians who are seeing their benefits slashed and their retirement savings and pensions further jeopardized. This trend is unacceptable, and Rep. Spanberger believes that these seniors and their families should be able to count on a secure retirement during their golden years. In Congress, she is focused on working with both Republicans and Democrats to maintain the benefits employees have earned and to push back against cuts to our Social Security and Medicare programs. Rep. Spanberger is committed to keeping our promises to working families, and she strongly opposes radical efforts to put the livelihoods of hardworking Americans at risk.
