Delegate Michael Feggans was raised for most of his life in the West Kempsville portion of Virginia Beach. A proud product of the Virginia Beach Public School system, he graduated from Tallwood High School and immediately enlisted in the U.S Air Force to pursue a career that would provide him the opportunity to become an innovative leader. An alumnus of VA Tech, Norfolk State, and UVA, he values and understands the importance of education, both traditional and nontraditional. After 20 years of service in the Air Force, he knew that the best place to retire from the military and start his next phase as a tech entrepreneur was back home in Virginia Beach. Michael is stepping forward once again to provide a fresh voice and to continue serving the community he loves.
WHY THIS RACE
Maintaining Democratic control of Virginia's 97th House District is essential for upholding progressive values and securing a majority in the House of Delegates. Delegate Michael Feggans, a Virginia Beach native and Air Force veteran, has been a staunch advocate for protecting reproductive rights, supporting public education, and advancing veterans' issues. His leadership is vital to countering right-wing extremism and ensuring that the interests of all Virginians are represented in the state legislature.
WHY VIRGINIA
Democrats must defend our House majority to keep Virginia a firewall against right-wing extremism. With momentum on our side, we can win key swing districts and build power for 2026. We also have a major opportunity to take back the Governor’s office and statewide seats, securing Virginia’s future as a stronghold for democracy.
