VIRGINIA - It’s been another week of self-inflicted losses for Winsome Earle-Sears from fundraising with a Project 2025 architect to two handwritten notes detailing her opposition to marriage equality and reproductive freedoms to even more dismissive statements. Sears continues to flail, fail, and flounder.  

SETTLING THIS WEEK’S SCORE 

Winsome’s Wins:

• Guest of Honor: Last weekend, Winsome Earle-Sears joined a special guest at a campaign event: Kevin Roberts, President of the Heritage Foundation and architect of Project 2025, an extreme, far-right blueprint that laid the groundwork for the Trump Administration’s attacks on Virginia’s economy and the jobs of thousands of Virginians that Sears has repeatedly cheered on.

Winsome’s Losses:

• Note to Self: As outlets across the Commonwealth cover her extreme record, Sears can’t escape the handwritten note she left on House Bill 174, the marriage equality  legislation Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed into law which protects the freedom of marriage equality in Virginia, declaring she is “morally opposed” to the content. 
• Another Note to Self: New reporting from the Virginia Mercury detailed handwritten notes Winsome Earle-Sears left on the constitutional amendment that would protect reproductive freedom in Virginia, including contraception, abortion, and IVF. Sears wrote “I am morally opposed to this bill [...].”
• Sears Speaks: After months of silence, Sears shared that she voted against the Right to Contraception Act because she believes that protecting access to birth control and contraception is  “pushing a political agenda.” Following her statement, Virginia's women leaders called her out for her extreme position and record on reproductive rights. 

And with Winsome, it’s Virginians who stand to lose the most:

• With Winsome Earle-Sears focused on an extreme agenda backing ongoing attacks on Virginia jobs and workers, defunding public schools, and ripping away reproductive rights, Virginians stand to lose the most.
