You're Invited: A Job Fair

Dear Constituent,

As Elon Musk and Donald Trump unleash what I believe to be an illegal and politically motivated purge of the federal workforce, federal contracts, and federal funding – our Northern Virginia district has become the prime target for these attacks.

Every day, I’m hearing from so many of my constituents who have been laid off – or are afraid that they may be the next to lose their jobs.

This is why I’ve organized a job fair for federal workers and contractors on Saturday, May 3 from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. at George Washington Middle School in Alexandria.

This job fair, held in partnership with the City of Alexandria, the City of Falls Church, Arlington County, and Fairfax County, will help those in our Northern Virginia community in need of a career transition navigate this uncertainty by connecting them directly with companies that are hiring.

Recruiters and hiring managers from a variety of employment sectors will participate including from health care, information technology, local government, the military, consumer electronics, accounting and finance, and federal government professional services.

Complementary professional photographic headshots will also be offered. You'll simply scan a QR code when you arrive at the event, have your picture taken, and instantly receive your preferred photo digitally.

Free parking is available at the school, but space is limited so please consider carpooling. George Washington Middle School is also a short walk away from the Braddock Road Metro stop on the Blue and Yellow lines.

If you are a federal employee, federal contractor, or have otherwise been affected by President Trump and Elon Musk’s dishonest attacks against people who provide critical services to the American people, I hope you will join us on Saturday, May 3.
