WASHINGTON, May 13, 2026, 19:07 EDT Pressure is mounting on Rep. Jen Kiggans to step down after the Virginia Republican replied “Ditto” to a radio host’s comment urging House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries to keep his “cotton-picking hands off of Virginia.” Kiggans later clarified, saying she did not endorse the wording and meant only that Jeffries should stay out of the state’s politics. (Reuters) This time, the controversy has real stakes: Kiggans is seeking another term in a closely contested House race. By Tuesday afternoon, Axios reported, over a dozen House Democrats—including some top Jeffries lieutenants—were publicly demanding she resign.
