Jill McCabe ran in 2015 for a seat in the Virginia State Senate. Prior to her political stint, she worked as a pediatric emergency physician.

Her campaign embraced the label of a non politician and her website said

“As a doctor and medical administrator, she has devoted her time and energy to improving the lives of all those under her care. In the hospital, Jill solves problems by listening to patients, analyzing data, and weighing the risks and benefits of every potential solution. Rather than shy away from challenging situations, Jill makes difficult decisions every day in order to advance the interests of the patients and families who place their trust in her. As our state senator, she will continue to devote herself to ensuring that your interests come first.”

Controversy has surrounded the couple after Jill ran for state Senate in Northern Virginia as a Democrat. Though lost her election bid. Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who is close to Bill and Hillary Clinton, gave McCabe’s campaign $467,500 from his political action committee. The Virginia Democratic Party also donated $207,788 to McCabe’s campaign, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Those ties led the FBI to issue a statement in October on Andrew McCabe’s ties to the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server.

The family of four currently reside in Loudoun County.
