Norfolk, VA – As Virginians head to the polls today, voters have a clear choice between Democratic nominee Jay Jones, who will put Virginia first, and Trump-endorsed Jason Miyares, who has spent the last 3.5 years putting the needs of Donald Trump and his MAGA agenda over the needs of Virginians.
Across the country, attorneys general have been the first line of defense against Trump’s attacks on jobs, healthcare, and civil rights and freedoms – but in Virginia, Jason Miyares has refused to act. While Trump illegally fires federal workers, imposes unlawful tariffs, and cuts healthcare, public safety, and food assistance funding, Miyares has chosen loyalty to the president and his party bosses.
Jones, a former Assistant Attorney General and delegate, is ready to put Virginians first. As the Commonwealth’s next Attorney General, Jay will:
“The stakes of this race couldn’t be higher,” said Rachel Rothman, Jones’ campaign manager. “Jason Miyares is too weak and too unwilling to stand up to Trump, despite his consistent attacks on Virginians’ workforce, economy, and basic freedoms, and Jay Jones is ready to lower costs, keep communities safe, and defend Virginians’ rights. That’s why Virginians will elect him as their next Attorney General tonight.”
