VA-01 Virginia's 1st Congressional District
Our Congressman
Rob Wittman
U.S. Representative · Virginia's 1st District · Serving since 2007
For nearly two decades, Rob Wittman has carried Williamsburg and James City County's voice to Washington. He rose the way Virginians respect: an environmental scientist who started on a small-town council and never stopped serving. Today he stands among the most senior voices in Congress on a strong Navy, on the shipbuilding base that anchors Virginia's economy, and on the Chesapeake Bay we call home.
Leadership in This Congress
- Vice ChairmanHouse Armed Services Committee
- ChairmanTactical Air and Land Forces Subcommittee
- MemberSelect Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party
- MemberHouse Natural Resources Committee
The two fights the 1st District feels most keenly: the ships Virginia builds and the Bay at our doorstep.
The Path of Service
- Montross Town Council10 years, 4 as mayor
- Westmoreland County BoardChairman
- Virginia House of DelegatesState Delegate
- U.S. House of RepresentativesSince 2007
He earned every rung, starting on his own town council, long before Washington.
