On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
Families are deeply concerned about the lack of good-paying jobs in Prince William and Manassas. People do not want to spend two hours daily to get to and from work in Fairfax or Washington. Gov. Robert F. McDonnell has done an excellent job of creating a pro-business climate in Virginia, but he does not have enough allies in the state Senate. To create these new jobs: simplify business taxes, provide incentives for companies to expand or locate here and better fund higher education to stop runaway tuition fees that are killing family budgets. Creating new jobs is my highest priority.
Why should voters elect you?
Here is my mission as your senator: Help create jobs, improve schools and make Virginia a better place to live, work and raise a family.
