Amanda Chase is a mother, small-business owner, and unwavering conservative committed to defending your freedoms. Raised in Virginia, she spent eight years in the State Senate representing Amelia County, Colonial Heights, and most of Chesterfield, tirelessly advancing conservative causes — from fighting for gun rights and election integrity to cutting red tape for small businesses.
 
Often called “Trump in heels,” Amanda shares President Trump’s fearless approach to putting America First. In the Senate, she championed legislation like the coal ash cleanup bill to protect our water, Red Tape Regulatory Reform to help businesses thrive, and a groundbreaking Healthcare Transparency bill to reduce costs for Virginians. A staunch defender of parental rights, life, and the Second Amendment, she stood firmly against Governor Northam’s gun control agenda.
 
Raised in Bon Air, Amanda graduated from Virginia Tech with a double major in Finance and Management. Her professional experience in banking and entrepreneurship gives her firsthand insight into the government overreach she has fought against in Richmond. A Virginia resident for more than 43 years, Amanda now lives in Appomattox County and proudly has four adult children — three of whom have chosen to remain in the Commonwealth they all love.
 
Nicknamed “Senator Transparency” for co-founding Virginia’s Transparency Caucus, Amanda pushed for accessible and accountable government, helping make committee meetings viewable online for all citizens. Recognized with honors like the 2017 Virginia Chamber of Commerce Distinguished Advocate and the 2016 Legislator of the Year Award from the Treasurers’ Association, she has proven her ability to get results.
 
“I fought for you in the Senate, and I’ll fight for you as Governor,” Amanda says. Inspired by President Trump’s courage, she’s running to stop socialism, secure our borders, and ensure Virginia remains a bastion of conservative principles.
