Luria Campaign Releases Second Campaign Ad, Highlighting Continued Service to Protecting and Defending the Constitution

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA – Today, 20-year Navy veteran and former small business owner Congresswoman Elaine Luria (VA-02) released her second television ad of the 2022 cycle, highlighting her continued service to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

“Many Coastal Virginians took the same oath in the military that I did, to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic,” Congresswoman Luria said. “It will take all of us to protect our democracy, and I will continue to live up to my oath regardless of the repercussions.”

Last month, Congresswoman Luria released a one-minute ad titled “Oath” highlighting the oath she took at 17 years before entering the U.S. Naval Academy.

Congresswoman Luria served for 20 years as a Surface Warfare Officer and nuclear engineer deploying six times—twice forward-deployed on ships stationed in Japan—conducting operations in the Middle East and Western Pacific on destroyers, cruisers, and aircraft carriers.

Whether it was enforcing sanctions by boarding Iraqi oil smugglers in the Arabian Gulf, launching jets off the deck of the aircraft carrier in the Indian Ocean to simultaneously strike terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan, operating complex nuclear reactors, as second in command of a guided-missile cruiser, or in command of a combat-ready unit of 400 sailors, providing assault craft to support the U.S. Marine Corps: Congresswoman Luria never let politics get in the way of doing what was right and getting the job done.

After raising $1.88 million in the second quarter of 2022, Congresswoman Luria’s campaign has more than $4.3 million cash on hand going into the November election for Virginia’s Second Congressional District.

Congresswoman Elaine Luria represents Virginia’s Second Congressional District, which includes all of Accomack and Northampton Counties, the cities of Virginia Beach and Williamsburg, as well as portions of Norfolk City, Hampton, and York and James City Counties. The new district lines will include all of Accomack, Isle of Wight, and Northampton Counties, the cities of Franklin, Suffolk, and Virginia Beach, as well as portions of Chesapeake and Southampton Counties. Congresswoman Luria serves as the Vice Chair on the House Armed Services Committee as well as on the Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee and Readiness Subcommittee, the House Veterans Affairs Committee where she is the Chair of the Disability and Memorial Assistance Subcommittee, and the House Committee on Homeland Security. In July of 2021, Congresswoman Luria was appointed to serve on the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. In 2020, Congresswoman Luria was elected to a second term. Virginia’s 2nd Congressional District has been added to the DCCC’s Frontline program for 2022.
