Update Week 6: Vote Trump/ I Support Israel/ Crossover/ John Fredericks Radio/ More

I'm Running for Congress to "Save America"

Christian Conservative
McGuire Stands with Israel

My Barn Burner John Fredericks Radio Interview
I stand with Israel. This week on the John Fredericks Show we discussed my Never Trumper opponent Bob Good voting with Virginia Democrats against a stand alone bill to help Israel after the horrific attacks where Hamas raped, burned, and killed hundreds including women and children on October 7. Hamas also took fellow Americans hostage. Note: This bill did not include funding for Ukraine.

Speaker Mike Johnson along with all Virginia Republicans (except Good) Ben Cline, Morgan Griffith, Jen Kiggans, and Rob Wittman voted yes to stand with Israel in their fight against terrorists. The US has a longstanding commitment to support the Jewish state of Israel and now extreme Democrats like AOC are defending terrorist groups like Hamas rather than supporting our ally. Congress must act to overcome AOC and her progressive pro-Hamas cronies. Click here for the barn burner interview.

Crossover
2024 Session Update Week 6
The General Assembly convened on January 10th. I am working hard with Governor Glenn Youngkin, Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears, and fellow legislators to make Virginia the best place to live, work, and raise a family. There are so many threats to Virginia: skyrocketing costs, the mess in our schools, the fentanyl streaming across the border. Will the Democrats help us solve these problems?

We are at the halfway point of Virginia’s 2024 General Assembly session. Fellow Republicans are in the minority but fighting tooth and nail to protect your rights. The Democrats have the majority in both chambers and are trying to pass bills to raise the minimum wage, infringe on our second amendment rights by banning newly made "assault" semi automatic weapons, increase abortion access, release violent criminals, assist people with suicide, and allow recreational weed dispensaries. Thank God we have a Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin with a veto pen. I passed three McGuire bills uncontested to the House Tuesday. Click here for Cardinal News story.

Here is some of what is on my mind and what we have been up to:
2ND Amendment "Shall Not Be Infringed"
I continue to speak up for and defend Virginia citizens’ gun rights on the Senate floor.


SB 222 Cybersecurity Passes the Senate
My bill SB 222 on cybersecurity has passed the Senate uncontested and is headed to the House. With cybersecurity threats on the rise, it is imperative we take action to secure our Commonwealth’s infrastructure. 
SB 630 Dispatchers/ First Responders Passes the Senate
My bill SB 630 to add law enforcement Dispatchers, including State Police Dispatchers, to the category of First Responders has passed the Senate uncontested and is headed to the House. Click here to learn why this is so important.
SB 603 Priority Treatment Jailed Pregnant Women Passes the Senate
My bill SB 603 to give incarcerated pregnant women preferential treatment for drug rehab programs has passed the Senate uncontested and is headed to the House. I have visited the women's jail in Goochland County and I've heard reports around the district about the challenges faced by pregnant women in jail to attend drug rehab programs. Incarcerated pregnant women (those held in federal or state prisons, jails, or juvenile detention facilities) make up one of the most vulnerable segments of society, with higher rates of mental illness, drug addiction, and histories of trauma than incarcerated men. This bill will create a work group to find answers on how to help rehabilitate young and not so young women with the triple threat of being incarcerated, being pregnant, and being addicted.
McGuire Speaks on the Minimum Wage Bill
The government should not tell the free market how much to pay someone. I spoke on the minimum wage bill.



Anti- Hunting Dog Bill Killed
Buckingham County Supervisor Cameron Gilliam made Buckingham County the first Virginian Hunting Dog Sanctuary County. I was happy to be there with Kirby Burch and many other fellow hunters!

Don't Forget to Vote Trump

I'm running for Congress because the enemy isn't at the gate -- the enemy is THROUGH the gate and in our communities. Open borders, fentanyl, lawlessness, out of control spending, and more. Our country is in big trouble. I am running to represent the people of the 5th Congressional District because I am a conservative with a record of building teams to solve problems. We can do better than Good.

I've been all over the district and I can tell you the 5th Congressional District loves Trump and the America First Agenda! 

I invite you and your friends to join me in this cause. Take care, please spread the word and I look forward to seeing you around the district!
For God and Country,

Senator John McGuire
