Foust Endorses Democrat Jimmy Bierman In Dranesville Supervisor Race

MCLEAN, VA — Incumbent Dranesville District Supervisor John Foust endorsed fellow Democrat Jimmy Bierman who is running to be his successor on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, according to a release.

"I'm proud to endorse my friend Jimmy Bierman to serve on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors,” Foust said, in a release from Bierman's campaign. “Jimmy is a community leader and dedicated public servant who understands the vital role county government plays in delivering facilities and services for the residents of the Dranesville District. Whether you live in Herndon, Vienna, Falls Church, McLean, or Great Falls — Jimmy is committed to serving you and your community. Jimmy Bierman is the right person to serve us as we go forward. I am certain he will be an effective champion for your family and all Dranesville residents."

Bierman announced in December that he was running for the Dranesville District seat, after Foust told his fellow supervisors last August that he would not be running in 2023.

“Supervisor John Foust’s leadership has shaped our county for the better, and I am deeply honored to have his endorsement," Bierman said. "John is a pillar in our community who never stops working for us. As Dranesville’s next supervisor, I am committed to fighting to protect our progress while expanding opportunities for all."

Bierman has already received the endorsement of U.S. Reps. Gerry Connolly (D-11th) and Don Beyer (D-8th).

No other candidate from either party has come forward yet to challenge Bierman in either the May 20 Democratic Party Primary or the general election in November.
