  • Growing the Military Mission in Virginia
    Growing the Military Mission in Virginia ★ ★ ★ “The Commonwealth’s Office of the Secretary of Veterans Key Virginia Statistics and Defense Affairs is undertaking a strategic approach to grow the military missions in Virginia.” ★ ★ ★ Why is this initiative important in YOUR District? Defense-related activities occur in all of the Commonwealth’s 100 House and 40 Senate districts, which overlap the 11 Congressional districts, and these activities have crucial implications for our national defense. All combined, the DOD contributes nearly $55 billion to Virginia’s economy – outpacing every other state and resulting in over 500,000 defense-related jobs across Virginia. These expenditures constitute approximately 12% of the Commonwealth’s Gross State Product (GSP). Due to these significant impacts, Governor McAuliffe issued Executive Order 11 which commissioned a strategic effort that resulted in twenty significant recommendations to grow the military mission in Virginia. Examples include: n Create a Center of Excellence that will teach a Whole of Government approach to national security challenges at the College of William and Mary. n Support expanding the Rivanna Station Integrated Intelligence Campus in Charlottesville. n Support expanding Joint Service and Special Operations Command training opportunities at both Fort AP Hill and Fort Pickett. All recommendations by the Commission on Military Installations and Defense Activities can be reviewed in detail in a report published by the Secretary of Veterans and Defense Affairs available at https://vada.virginia.gov. These recommendations, if fully developed, will result in an increase in the military missions within the Commonwealth, which corresponds to increased defense investment, more jobs, and greater economic stability.
