On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
Although traffic congestion and rising taxes are our most apparent problems, our growing financial liability associated with the Dulles Rail Project and Tysons Corner and the lack of credible transparency in our budget are the real and most urgent problems we face today. Our board members are not being upfront with taxpayers as to how much their planned development will cost and how much of that cost local taxpayers will have to bear. This "buy it now and we will tell you how much it costs later" mentality is not an effective way to do business.
Why should voters elect you?
A vote for me is a vote for: transparency, accountability, stopping unchecked spending, and ensuring the right level of resources get to our classrooms.
