Former Virginia House Speaker Eileen Filler-Corn has decided against a bid for governor in 2025 and will instead run next year to represent the competitive northern Virginia congressional seat being vacated by a fellow Democrat, U.S. Rep. Jennifer Wexton.
Democrats used two years in full control of state government to act on reams of progressive priorities, expanding voting rights, rolling back limits on abortion, passing greater restrictions on firearms, legalizing marijuana and ending the death penalty. But the party lost its House majority in the 2021 election cycle, and Filler-Corn — who works outside the Legislature in her own strategic consulting business — was ousted as the Democratic caucus's leader.
