Serving the First Congressional District of Virginia since 2007, Rob has been focused on strengthening our military and supporting veterans, promoting economic development through fiscal responsibility, fixing our crumbling infrastructure, increasing access to high-speed internet, and promoting workforce development through Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) programs.
In the U.S. Congress, Rob serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the Committee on Natural Resources, where he is well-positioned to represent the needs of Virginia's First District. He has quickly earned a reputation for being an advocate for our men and women in uniform and for being a champion of the Chesapeake Bay.
To be absolutely clear: we need to honor our commitment to current Social Security and Medicare beneficiaries and those who are nearing eligibility. I want to preserve the benefits and the contributions people have made into the system, but starting in the 2030’s, there could be a reduction in benefits people receive. This is absolutely unacceptable. We must ensure the long-term substantiality of these programs so future generations can have the peace of mind and security these programs provide seniors. I will continue to look for bipartisan solutions that preserve and strengthen Social Security for today’s seniors and future generations while also promoting policies that help Americans at all stages of life to save for retirement. I am committed to preserving these critical programs for decades to come. |
