Although this Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting or represent a complete profile of a legislator, it can be a guide in evaluating your legislator’s attitude toward small business.

I am proud to say that we have kept my promises and never stopped fi ghting for what is right. 30 Keeping Virginians Safe Today, it’s clear our Commonwealth is changing for the better. Unemployment is at its lowest point in nearly 34 Transforming Transportation a decade and the new Virginia economy is rich with opportunity. We’ve signifi cantly expanded workforce training opportunities, jump-started veteran hiring initiatives, and kicked off a redesign of our high school 38 Protecting Our Natural Resources curriculum. Together, we have embraced an inclusive approach to governing, making Virginia an even more open and welcoming place to live, work, and raise a family. While we met resistance at times along the way, we have never stopped searching for common ground. As governor, I vetoed a record 120 bills that would have pulled Virginia backwards, but I am even prouder to have signed thousands of bills from both sides of the aisle that moved our Commonwealth forward. It’s easy to focus on the facts and fi gures of all we have accomplished but, after four years as your governor, I am certain that my administration’s most meaningful legacy will carry on in the individual lives we impacted.

On Friday, September 8, a revolutionary new program named Innovative Mobile Personalized Accelerated Competency Training (IMPACT) was announced with great fanfare. This new program features competency-based education (CBE) which is centered on an approach to teaching and learning more often used in learning concrete skills rather than abstract learning. Students gain expertise in a subject as they complete exercises in an asynchronous environment online. The program is targeted to be most attractive to working professionals, where they can move at their own pace and complete a cybersecurity certificate that will also earn them 18 credit hours. IMPACT training will also prepare participants for professional certification exams that are key to high-paying and high- demand job opportunities that are available in the new economy.
