Bree Fram, the retired Space Force Col. who was forced out of the military in December 2025 under the Trump administration’s ban on transgender service members, announced in a 20 January post to her Instagram that she’s running for Congress.

“Too many Americans are afraid of what their own government is doing to them, instead of confident it’s working for them,” Fram said in a statement launching her campaign. “That’s why I’m running for Congress.”

A rocket scientist and senior military leader, Fram spent 23 years defending the United States, rising to the rank of Colonel in the Space Force. 

Fram is entering the Congressional race as Virginia is poised for redistricting. She has said she plans to run in whichever district she resides once new lines are finalized, even if that means challenging an incumbent or navigating a crowded primary.
