Five Republicans in the race so far for #VA11. Canvass event to decide a nominee will be held on June 28 — the same day as Democrats.

If you need any further proof that Republicans have momentum in Fairfax County, here it is! These are four of the AMAZING candidates who have stepped up to run for Gerry Connolly’s congressional seat in the 11th District. L-R: Sam Wong, Lucas Rand, me, Karina Lipsman, and Mike https://t.co/mLBn1PBCs1

Stella Pekarsky has earned the endorsement of the Fairfax County Federation of Teachers in her bid for #VA11. Pekarsky served on the Fairfax County School Board prior to her election to the Virginia Senate.

I am honored to be endorsed by the @FCFTunion. I am the first candidate in this race to receive an endorsement from a labor union. I have spent my career fighting for our public school teachers and staff, and I am ready to take that fight to Congress. https://t.co/vqhotchMDb

James Walkinshaw earns the endorsement of the National Federation of Federal Employees. #VA11 has one of the largest amounts of federal employees among all the Congressional districts.

(1/2): I’m deeply honored to have the support of the National Federation of Federal Employees. With tens of thousands of federal workers across our district, I’m proud to be @NFFE_Union’s choice to fight Trump’s dangerous agenda. https://t.co/n6hzI79bBv
