On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
The economy is the most urgent issue facing the 13th district. We need to have an economy in Northern Virginia that is sustainable and doesn't rely so heavily on the federal government. Improving our education system is key to this economic growth. Employers will want to locate here if they have access to a highly educated and highly trained workforce. This will only happen when Virginia has the best schools in the country and ultimately the best in the world. Great schools will strengthen the region's economy and give our students the best opportunities for the future.
Why should voters elect you?
The 13th district deserves a delegate who is focused on the needs of the district, not someone focused on an extreme personal political agenda.
