You’re Invited – Special Election Fundraiser
Please support Chris Cardiff for Delegate, District 17
WHERE: Reception at the home of Sue Bradley
WHEN: Monday, January 12th at 6:30 PM. Address provided upon RSVP.
The special election for House of Delegates District 17 will be held on Tuesday, January 20. This is a highly winnable seat, but victory depends on turning out every Republican voter.
Chris’ campaign has quickly launched an aggressive Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) operation that includes:

Direct-mail postcards (2)
Daily text messages reminding Republicans to vote
Door knocking effort to alert Republicans to the Special Election

This effort is critical—and direct mail is expensive. Our goal is to raise $14,000 to fully fund the GOTV program. We’ve already raised $4,500, which puts us 30% of the way there, but we need your help to close the gap.
Please consider making a generous contribution to help ensure Republicans turn out and Chris Cardiff wins on January 20. https://cardiff4virginia.com/donate

March For Life with Vice President JD Vance
2026-01-23 11:00 - 17:00 | Washington D C National Mall, between Wold War II Memorial and Washington Monument, Washington DC, Washington DC, 20242
JOIN US ON JANUARY 23, 2026 IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
The March for Life is an inspiring, peaceful, vibrant, and joy-filled rally of women, men, young people, and children from all across the country – and it’s the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world. Every January, tens of thousands of pro-lifers converge in Washington, D.C. and march on Capitol Hill to remember the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling which legalized abortion in all 50 states. And while the Dobbs decision rightly returned the decision to the American people, our work to protect life continues at the state and federal levels. But the March for Life is not just a protest… it is a celebration of each and every life, from the moment of conception. We envision a world where every life is celebrated, valued, and protected.
