As a native of Southwest Virginia, he cared deeply for its people and was a tremendous advocate for them in the state Senate. I will miss this good and dedicated public servant. My prayers are with his wife Lora and his family. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | ||

U.S. Senator Tim Kaine, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, released the following statement after the Senate voted 81-13 tooverride President Trump's veto of the Fiscal Year 2021 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA): I'm glad my colleagues on both sides of the aisle stood by our servicemembers and rejected President Trump's veto. For 60 years in a row, the NDAA has provided necessary support for our troops and national security. Today's vote sent a clear message that Congress will not allow President Trump to stand in the way of that support, and I'm relieved the critical bipartisan priorities we fought for will become law. ### Print Email Tweet | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
