Richmond, VA — The Virginia House Democratic Caucus is proud to announce the appointment of Jenner Foster as Executive Director. A seasoned political operative with a track record of overperformance and electoral victories, Foster will lead the Caucus into the critical 2025 legislative session and elections.

His expertise spans campaign management, fundraising, media strategy, and consultant coordination. “Jenner Foster is a proven leader whose dedication and expertise have been instrumental in our recent successes,” said Speaker Don Scott. “His ability to build coalitions, craft winning strategies, and win will be critical as we prepare to expand our majority and fight for progress in Virginia.” “Jenner has been a key member of our House Democratic Caucus team and I look forward to working with him to grow our majority,” said Majority Leader Charniele Herring. Caucus Chair Kathy Tran added, “Jenner’s history of overperformance, even in tough political climates, makes him an exceptional choice to lead our efforts. I’m thrilled to have him on board as we continue to work toward a brighter future for all Virginians.” “I am honored to take on this role at such a pivotal moment,” said Jenner Foster. “The Virginia House Democratic Caucus is committed to advancing policies that make a real difference in people’s lives, and I look forward to working alongside our incredible members to build on our progress and ensure success in the 2025 elections.” With Foster at the helm, the Virginia House Democratic Caucus is well-positioned to expand its majority and continue delivering results for the people of Virginia. |
