Why should voters elect you?
My experience as a legislator, businessman/engineer and inventor provides skills that are a great resource when making difficult decisions facing my district and the state.

What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
The most urgent problem for the 33rd House District and Virginia, particularly Northern Virginia, is the need to change our present transportation strategy to address our severe traffic problems. The strategy must include alternate means of transportation funding along with the recognition that it is no longer possible to solve all of our traffic problems with just asphalt. Rail and transit must become a substantial part of the solution.
