  • Re-Naming Districts

    Re-Naming Districts

    3/25/2021 Virginia Legislative Information Systems Mail - Re-naming Districts VA Redistricting <[email protected]> Re-naming Districts Janet I. Trettner <[email protected]> Sun, Feb 28, 2021 at 8:10 PM To: Virginia Redistricting Commission <[email protected]> Dear Members of the Redistricting Commission: Our House, Senate, and Congressional districts are currently labeled in a manner that is very confusing. Each set of districts is numbered beginning with number one. As a result, there are 3 districts 1-11 (House, Senate, and Congressional) and 2 districts 12- 40 (House and Senate). Only districts 41-100 are clearly identifiable as House districts. I respectfully request that once you have established our new districts, you rename them so there is no longer any question which district one is referring to. My suggestion going forward is: House and Senate districts would be labeled consecutively. If the final plan includes 100 House districts and 40 Senate senate districts, for instance, the House districts would be labeled 1-100 and the Senate districts would be labeled 101-140. These numbers would be adjusted of course depending on the actual number of districts in the final plan. Congressional districts would be lettered A-K (adjusted for the actual number of congressional districts in the final plan). This would make references to the districts so much easier to understand. Thank you for your consideration of this idea and for the work you are doing, Very truly yours, Janet I. Trettner Keezletown, Virginia 22832

    Online Lottery Bill up in Senate General Laws Committee Monday Your Assistance Needed

    January 26, 2018 www.vpcga.com Online Lottery Bill Up in Senate General Laws Committee Monday Your Assistance Needed A Richmond lobbying firm has been running a disinformation campaign on behalf of a Silicon Valley startup which would allow them to sell lottery tickets online. Their goal is to make money by taking customers out of Virginia stores and have them purchase tickets over the internet, where the startup will take your commissions and cashing bonuses and presumably a piece of the prizes. This is a horrible precedent. Here are the legislators on the General Laws Committee. Frank Ruff -Southside George Barker - Fairfax County Jill Vogel -Warrenton, Upperville Dick Black Leesburg, Loudoun Adam Ebbin - Alexandria Bryce Reeves Fredericksburg, Orange Jennifer Wexton Loudoun Scott Surovell - Mount Vernon Bill DeSteph - Virginia Beach Jeremy McPike- Manassas, Price William David Sutterlein - Roanoke Siobhan Dunnavant - Henrico Glen Sturtevant - Richmond, Chesterfield Monty Mason - Williamsburg, Newport News For their contact information go to http://whosmy.virginiageneralassembly.gov/. Even if you are not in their specific district, contact those that are in your service area. Call the legislator's General Assembly Office and follow up with an email. Ask your employees who are willing to do so as well. Here are points to make: • We ask that you vote against Senate 848 when it is before the General Laws Committee Monday. • It would allow a California company to sell Virginia Lottery tickets online. • I would take customers out of my stores along with their incidental purchases which are a vital part of my business. • Those pushing the legislation have made outrageous claims of new revenue to the state that will never be realized.
