The National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), chaired by former Attorney General Eric Holder, has announced its endorsement of Jason Ford, candidate for the Virginia State Senate in the 28th District. The NDRC supports candidates running for state-level offices who are critical to safeguarding and strengthening democracy.

“From voting to reproductive rights, state legislatures are critical to protecting democracy and the freedoms that come with it,” said Holder, who served as the 82nd Attorney General of the United States. “I am proud to support these Democracy Defenders who will fight for real progress and against the anti-democratic forces in the commonwealth.” Ford has stated his deep commitment to the NDRC’s mission, including its focus on free and fair elections.
