Richmond Leader

Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan, representing Virginia's 4th district in the U.S. Congress, recently addressed several issues through her social media platform. McClellan, who succeeded Donald McEachin in 2023, shared her concerns and legislative efforts with her followers.

On March 4, 2025, McClellan highlighted the impending government shutdown unless a funding bill is passed by Congress. She criticized the Trump Administration and Republicans for prioritizing "billionaire donors like Elon Musk over hard working American people." "In 10 days, we face a government shutdown unless Congress passes a funding bill. But the Trump Administration and Republicans run the same old playbook of prioritizing billionaire donors like Elon Musk over hard working American people."

Later that day, she invited her audience to watch her full remarks via an online link. "Watch my full remarks here: https://t.co/pqyWnWkoiu"
