Why should voters elect you?
"Because of my experience, seniority, honesty, integrity, knowledge, a proven track record and the ability to work cooperatively with fellow members of the General Assembly."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"Transportation! A reliable funding source must be passed in order to fund the great needs within our transportation network. Multi-modal uses must be pushed to reduce cars on our crowded roads, as construction cannot occur overnight. Employers must be able to get their employees to work, or the technology industry supporting Northern Virginia will locate elsewhere."
