Why Abigail Spanberger Should Be Virginia’s Next Governor 

September 23, 2025

Every child in Virginia deserves to learn, grow and thrive – and that starts with strong leadership in the governor’s office. That’s why Save the Children Action Network (SCAN) is proud to endorse Abigail Spanberger.  

A proven champion for kids, Spanberger will fight for child nutrition, early learning and the relief Virginia’s families desperately need.  

She was ranked as the most bipartisan member of Congress, working across the aisle to make a real impact. From expanding access to affordable child care to increasing child care tax credits and safeguarding school meals, Spanberger’s record speaks for itself.  

She’s cosponsored key policies backed by SCAN including:  

  • The Affordable Child Care Act  
  • Increased funding for Head Start  
  • Expanding school nutrition programs  

Spanberger also supported legislation to provide child care during nontraditional work hours – vital for hardworking families across the state.  

Abigail Spanberger understands that no child can learn on an empty stomach, and no parent should have to choose between work and high-quality child care.  

Virginia’s future is on the ballot in 2025 – and this tenacious, compassionate, solutions-driven leader is the clear choice for governor.

Fight for a Budget that Puts Kids First

The White House’s 2026 budget request is packed with deep cuts to lifesaving humanitarian aid, global health funding, school meals, and early childhood education. This is NOT the future children deserve. Tell Congress: Investing in kids is investing in America.
