Glen Sturtevant, a Republican member of the Virginia State Senate representing the 12th district since his election in 2024, addressed several issues on social media on February 5, 2026. In a series of posts, Sturtevant commented on healthcare institutions, nursing home funding, and state policy under Governor Spanberger.
In a post published at 00:35 UTC, Sturtevant wrote: “Thanks to Newsmax for having me on this morning. VCU Health is the flagship public hospital in Virginia. This nurse was employed there while pushing left-wing terrorism. Criminal prosecution must happen.”
Later that day at 13:09 UTC, he discussed legislation concerning nursing homes: “Nursing homes should be focused on caring for residents and families, not maximizing profits. My bill would ensure that your taxpayer dollars go only toward improving quality of care in these facilities, which is exactly what those funds were intended for.”
At 15:30 UTC, Sturtevant criticized Governor Spanberger’s approach to state policy and law enforcement cooperation: “Virginians didn’t elect Gov. Spanberger to prioritize political narratives over kitchen-table issues. They wanted action on affordability.
Gov. Spanberger’s “Sanctuary State” policy puts extremist politics over public safety. When Virginia law enforcement can’t work with”
Sturtevant assumed office after winning the seat previously held by Siobhan Dunnavant in the 2024 election.
