On April 12, Sturtevant criticized state leadership regarding recent tax legislation. He wrote, “We had legislation to eliminate the Car Tax and the Grocery Tax. The Governor was totally AWOL. She let the Dems kill those Affordability bills.”
The following day, on April 13, Sturtevant posted a religious statement: “Christ is King!”
Later that day, he addressed concerns about rising utility costs in central Virginia. He stated, “Virginia families are already feeling the squeeze.

Sturtevant replaced Siobhan Dunnavant as senator for Virginia’s 12th district after his election in 2024.
