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.
Fighting for a More Transparent Democracy
The framers of the U.S. Constitution intended for our government officials to be accountable to the people they were elected to serve. But too often, representatives seem to be beholden to special interests, lobbyists, and large corporations.
Rep. Spanberger is focused on protecting the integrity of our elections from foreign interference, restoring trust in our system of government, eliminating conflicts of interest, and giving Virginians a stronger voice at the table. She believes that Members of Congress should hold themselves to the highest standard of transparency, accountability, and ethical behavior when it comes to making decisions on behalf of the Americans they serve.
