“JD Spain is the leader we need now to unify the community and to guide Arlington County through its post-COVID growth and transformation. For more than a quarter century, JD has served; first as a United States Marine in service to our nation and then as a community leader serving our fellow Arlingtonians. Despite assignment, he rose to the occasion, built successful teams and made decisions affecting the lives of others, whether in diplomatic and Congressional arenas or austere and dangerous combat situations. As a fellow Marine, I understand the gravity of his decisions, especially those he made during combat deployments where a bad decision could be deadly. Electing JD would give Arlington a proven leader, at ease making decisions on his first day, and a voice for the County’s nearly 12,000 veterans. He has this veteran’s wholehearted endorsement.”
