The Democratic Women of Clifton and Northern Virginia (DWCNV) will host a reception in honor of John Foust, the Democratic Candidate for the Virginia 10th Congressional District on Saturday, Sept. 20. The event will take place at the Clifton home of Terry Matlaga and Kevin Bell from 5 to 7 p.m. Special guests include state Senators George Barker, Dave Marsden and Chap Petersen, Delegates David Bulova and Eileen Filler-Corn, Fairfax Board Chairman Sharon Bulova and Sheriff Stacey Kincaid.

Jane Barker, Chair of the DWCNV, said, “The last fundraiser that we held as an organization was back in 2005, the year the DWCNV began. We feel so strongly that we need Supervisor John Foust to represent Democrats, Republicans, and Independents that we decided to host a fundraiser to help him win his election. His mainstream American values, thoughtful common sense approach, ability to work across party lines, effectiveness, and leadership are sorely needed in a too partisan Congress.”
