House Republican Leader Todd Gilbert issued the following statement:

“The safety of our communities cannot be sacrificed just so that Democrats can feel good about themselves at cocktail parties.

Leader Gilbert Statement on Tuesday’s Presidential Election Results

Nov 6, 2024 | Uncategorized

House Republican Leader Todd Gilbert issued the following statement:

“Congratulations to President-elect Trump and Vice President-Elect Vance on their remarkable win last night. They will return to Washington with a clear mandate from the American people.

“Across Virginia, and indeed the entire nation, voters shifted to the right in record numbers. Working class Americans stood up and said they’re tired of being told the economy is fine, and that they should just buy off brand peanut butter to deal with inflation.

“Groups long taken for granted by the left rejected claims that their schools are fine and their children are safe in their communities. Tens of millions of Americans decided they’d had enough of being called Nazis for simply having a different political opinion. Americans will no longer ignore what they can see right in front of them, no matter how much Democrats insist that reality is wrong.

“The road ahead will not be easy, and there’s a great deal of work to be done. But the message from the people is crystal clear: it’s time for results, not just rhetoric.”

Leader Gilbert Statement on Today’s U.S. Supreme Court Ruling

Oct 30, 2024 | Press Releases

House Republican Leader Todd Gilbert issued the following statement:

“Today’s Supreme Court order isn’t just a victory for the Commonwealth of Virginia: it’s also a victory for common sense. Noncitizens cannot vote in our elections, and as such, people who self identify as noncitizens should be required to clarify their citizenship status. Without this order, the Biden-Harris administration would have forced as many as 1,600 self-identified noncitizens back onto the voting rolls. Congratulations to Governor Youngkin and Attorney General Miyares on a job well done.”

Oct 25, 2024 | Press Releases, Uncategorized

House Republican Leader Todd Gilbert issued the following statement:

“Today’s ruling to return self-identified non-citizens to the voter rolls removes all doubt: Democrats want non-citizens voting in our elections. And that is exactly what will happen unless this ruling is overturned. House Republicans stand with Governor Youngkin and Attorney General Miyares in their effort to ensure that only American citizens vote in our elections.”
