How hard is it to just say “I’m sorry”?
On Saturday night, an unauthorized tweet came from a campaign account. I regret that this happened and it shouldn’t have. I have addressed it with my team. We must continue to work to bring Virginians together. There is so much more that unites us than divides us.

.@JoeBiden knows that rebuilding & investing in our federal agencies must be a top priority.
Whether it's getting social security checks out on time or ensuring our veterans get the best possible care—all Americans, regardless of political affiliation, rely on federal workers.
We have a lot of great Democrats running for President, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what our candidates will do to strengthen and rebuild the federal workforce after 4 years of Trump—because federal workers make America work.

Barbara Comstock is scared.
She's scared because her #GOPTaxScam hurts #VA10 families.
She's scared because she votes with Trump 98% of the time.
She's scared because she is beholden to the NRA and special interests.
And she's scared because #VA10 voters are ready for change.
We released our first TV and cable ad. We’ve cut taxes for families and businesses and our economy is booming and bringing good paying jobs to Virginia’s 10th District and the country. But my opponent, ranked the #1 liberal in the state senate, wants to halt our prosperity. #VA10

More than 50% of the women killed with guns in the U.S. are murdered by their partners.
But in states that have comprehensive background checks, 47% fewer women are shot to death by partners.
We need to do better at the federal level and we will do better in the next Congress.
Dr. Tamara O'Neal, along with two others, were shot by a gunman at Chicago’s Mercy Hospital.
She was murdered by her former fiancé. She recently broke off an engagement with him. abc7.ws/2zkwpd2

Maybe for once @realDonaldTrump, you could stop the dangerous fearmongering, especially in light of recent credible threats of violence.

Your 2nd Amendment is under very serious attack in the Great Commonwealth of Virginia. That’s what happens when you vote for Democrats, they will take your guns away. Republicans will win Virginia in 2020. Thank you Dems!

The President showed us who he is when he called Mexicans rapists and criminals.
He showed us again when he called them “shithole countries.”
And he’s showing us today when targeting Congresswomen of color who — by the way — are Americans.
He’s a racist and a bigot.
....and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how....

.@realDonaldTrump & @RepComstock blew a hole in the federal deficit by giving tax cuts to the rich, & now they’re going to pay for it on the backs of federal workers by denying them scheduled pay raises. This harms thousands of #VA10 families. Our Congresswoman should be ashamed.
