Jen A. Kiggans
Background
- The sitting member for Virginia's 2nd district, in the 118th and 119th Congresses since January 3, 2023. She sits on the Armed Services, Veterans' Affairs and Natural Resources Committees and chairs the Veterans' Affairs Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations. She has sponsored 78 bills and resolutions plus five floor amendments and cosponsored 700 measures, and one of the bills she sponsored has become law.
- Her office's biography records ten years as a Navy helicopter pilot, flying H-46 and H-3 aircraft, with two deployments to the Persian Gulf.
- The same page records that after active duty she used her GI Bill benefits to qualify as a nurse practitioner and practised in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.
What they say they want to do
- Renew and reform the Affordable Care Act premium tax credits, an effort her campaign says she led.
- Hold federal taxes down; her campaign points to the Working Families Tax Cuts, which it says made the 2017 tax cuts permanent and ended most taxes on tips and overtime.
- Keep the Department of Veterans Affairs fully funded.
- Keep border security funding and interior enforcement in place.
- Leave Medicare and Social Security untouched for those receiving or near receiving benefits.
What the official record shows
- H.R. 3581, the COPE Act, the first of her own bills to pass the House, agreed to by voice vote on a motion to suspend the rules. It was referred to a Senate committee, had no further action there, and is not law.
- H.R. 5490, the Bolstering Ecosystems Against Coastal Harm Act, became Public Law 118-117. It is the only bill she has sponsored that has become law.
- On H.R. 6703 she voted Nay on the motion to recommit, which Rep. Underwood offered to extend the enhanced premium tax credits for three years and which failed 210 to 218, and Yea on passage, which carried 216 to 211.
- She was an original cosponsor of H.R. 7008, the Stop Insider Trading Act, and voted Yea on its passage, 232 to 198. It is on the Senate calendar and is not law.

Itemized receipts from political committees in this committee's 2025-2026 cycle filings, grouped by the FEC's recorded organization type or designation of the contributing committee, and read at the commission on September 13, 2026. The twelve rows sum to $1,255,600.68, which is the FEC summary's other-committee contributions of $1,250,100.68 plus its party-committee contributions of $5,500.00. Every figure here is a sum of the filings' own itemized rows, not the matching line on the FEC's summary of the cycle, and the two can differ by whatever the filings did not itemize. Not in the table: contributions from individuals, transfers from joint fundraising committees, and the memo entries, which restate money the report already counts elsewhere and would be counted twice if they were added. This committee is also the one whose filing column and the commission's computed cycle totals diverge, which the note on its Pre-Primary report sets out; the rows here are a grouping of the filings' own itemized entries and reconcile to the commission's summary of contributions from other committees.
