Supporting Our Families

My pledge to you is that I will back legislation that supports traditional family values. In addition, supporting our citizens with intellectual and developmental disabilities will be one of my top priorities. As a longtime member and supporter of the Hanover Association of Retarded Citizens (ARC), I understand the challenges these individuals and families encounter on a daily basis. For this reason, I will support Virginia's ongoing transition from institutional care to community-based services and also work to reduce the "waiting list" for community based services.

Our stagnant economy has magnified the financial challenges Virginia families wrestle with every day. I believe Virginia needs more taxpayers, not more taxes! That is why I will focus on economic policies that encourage investment, increase employment opportunities, and promote economic growth. I will support and defend Virginia's "Right to Work" Law, and I will also work to maintain a common sense regulatory environment. Business owners from across the 55th House District recognize my commitment to the free enterprise system, which is why numerous business leaders and business organizations have endorsed by candidacy.
