Va. senator responds to Arlington is a ‘soulless suburb’ comment

WASHINGTON — New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., has written some harsh things about Arlington.

In fact, she called it a “soulless suburb” in her new book “Off the Sidelines.”

But Virginia Senator Mark Warner has a retort for Gillibrand — and he put it on a shirt.

On Friday, he presented her with a blue T-shirt that reads “Arlington – We Got Soul.” It includes a white picture of Virginia with a heart over Arlington.

Warner tweeted images of him presenting the shirt. See it below:
