Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) launched her bid for Virginia governor on Monday, announcing she will not seek reelection to the U.S. House next year. Making the announcement in a campaign video titled “What Matters Most,” the Virginia representative said she knows “how to bring people together” at a time when the nation is at “a crossroads.” “Our country and our Commonwealth are facing fundamental threats to our rights, our freedoms, and to our democracy. While some politicians in Richmond focus on banning abortion and books, what they’re not doing is helping people,” Spanberger said in the video.
