Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan, who represents Virginia’s 4th district in the U.S. House of Representatives, posted a series of updates on her social media accounts between April 11 and April 13, 2026. The posts addressed congressional activity, promoted a television appearance, and reminded constituents about an upcoming art competition deadline.

On April 11, McClellan commented on recent developments in Congress and ongoing international tensions: “The House remained in recess this week as tensions rose in President Trump’s war in Iran. Here’s more of what you may have missed this week.”

Two days later, she encouraged followers to watch her upcoming appearance on a news program: “Tune in to @ZerlinaMornings at 8:30am!” (April 13).

Later that same day, McClellan issued a reminder about the Congressional Art Competition: “Officially ONE WEEK LEFT until the deadline for my Congressional Art Competition! Submit an original piece of artwork by April 20th for a chance to see your art displayed in the U.S. Capitol “ (April 13).

Jennifer McClellan has served as the representative for Virginia’s 4th district since replacing Donald McEachin in 2023. Before joining Congress, she was a member of both the Virginia House of Delegates from 2006 to 2017 and the Virginia Senate. Born in Petersburg, Virginia in 1972, McClellan currently resides in Richmond. She holds degrees from the University of Richmond (BA) and the University of Virginia (JD).
