Our Campaign Priorities

As a progressive Commonwealth’s Attorney, Buta promised to always protect access to reproductive health care. When Glenn Youngkin and his MAGA extremist allies tried to criminalize reproductive freedom, Buta pledged to never prosecute doctors who provide care, or women who choose to access it. Now, she wants to go to Richmond and demand that our reproductive freedoms are codified into the Virginia Constitution, ensuring that they will be protected forever.

Buta Biberaj Announces State Senate Run for District 32

Buta Biberaj held a press conference Tuesday calling out Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares directly for making cases like this political fodder.

'Stay in your lane': Loudoun Co. Commonwealth's Attorney Buta Biberaj to AG Jason Miyares

Loudoun County’s prosecutor moved to drop the remaining charge with prejudice — meaning it can’t be filed again — and said the case was unwarranted and could have led to the type of tragedy that sparked this summer’s nationwide protests against police killings of Black men and women. A Loudoun County Circuit Court judge approved the motion without comment at a brief hearing.

Prosecutor rebukes police over violent traffic stop

After nearly five days of testimony and a day of deliberations, a Loudoun Circuit Court jury last week handed down guilty verdicts against a Sterling man who shot at two deputies—severely injuring one—last year in the Dulles Crossing Plaza Walmart store.
