Virginia’s 10th Congressional District’s representative to the US, Jennifer Wexton, was sworn in on January 3, 2019. Before this, Wexton served as the 33rd District’s state senator for Virginia from 2014 to 2019.
On May 27, 1968, Wexton was born in Washington, D.C. For the US Department of the Treasury and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, respectively, her mother and father both held prominent economic positions. She earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Maryland, College Park, before completing her legal education at the College of William & Mary School of Law.
Wexton is an associate with The Laurel Brigade Legal Group. Before being elected to the Virginia State Senate, she served as an assistant commonwealth’s attorney and substitute judge in Loudoun County, Virginia.
Democratic primary voters chose Wexton over Herndon Town Councilwoman Sheila Olem. In a campaign advertisement, Wexton talked about her experience working with rape and assault victims and vowed to “fight just as hard against tea party Republicans who would take away a woman’s health care and her right to choose, even in cases of rape and incest.”
The Virginia Republican Party criticized the advertising and said that it compared Tea Party supporters to rapists; Wexton’s team denied the charge. She ran against Republican John Whitbeck and Republican-turned-Independent Joe T. May in the January 2014 special election, and she won 53%-38%-10%.
