On the Issues

What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?

The most urgent problem facing my jurisdiction is the high volume of traffic brought to us as a result of the opening of the BRAC 133 facility at Mark Center. I have led the charge in Richmond to secure funding for transit solutions and for road improvements to minimize the negative impact that our communities and schools face as a result of the ill-advised location of the facility.

Why should voters elect you?

I have a proven track record of bringing home results for the district, which is my home for over 25 years. I deliver real results.
