We are delighted for you to join us today to hear from your representatives in state government on policies that affect Virginia’s business climate and economic prosperity. Your voice is important. I would like to highlight some of the priorities of the business community that we hope to work collaboratively on with members of the Virginia Senate and House of Delegates over the next couple months. Our most important area of focus this legislative session will be to defend Virginia’s business climate. We know that there will be challenges to foundational business policies that make Virginia a great place to do business. Legislation that would remove bed rock principles like the Commonwealth’s right to work law, our legal and regulatory climate, and the Dillon’s rule will be introduced this session. It will take a unified business voice and advocacy to successfully pushback against these misguided efforts and maintain our standing as one of the best states to do business. As Virginia continues to fight and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Virginia Chamber will be advocating for policies that will help businesses get back to work stronger than before. The Commonwealth will likely be receiving additional federal stimulus funds and the Chamber will be making targeted suggestions to assist struggling businesses. Also, the Chamber will push for protections from frivolous lawsuits for businesses that have given a good faith effort in adhering to new state and federal COVID-19 regulations. Investing in workforce and education opportunities for all Virginians remains a pillar of the Virginia Chamber's mission. We will continue to advocate for these opportunities, especially in the area of early childhood education. It is of vital importance that we build a strong foundation by improving access to affordable, high-quality early childhood education for Virginia's working families. Additionally, it is critical for Virginia to grow state and regional partnerships among early childhood education, K-12 schools, higher education institutions, and business to align resources and identify existing and future supply and demand for skills and jobs. We will work with legislators to enhance work-based learning opportunities, internships, and apprenticeships to better prepare our workforce of the future. The Virginia Chamber will be tracking much of the legislation put forward by members of the General Assembly through our Bills We're Watching page which will be relaunching in the coming days. More information on these important pieces of legislation can be found on our website at vachamber.com. Your participation in Chamber Day displays the effectiveness the business community can have when we speak with a unified voice. The presence of so many business leaders on the same day strengthens the message. Please reach out to us with any questions or concerns you have as session progresses. Sincerely, Barry E.

(Click below to view) 2021 CHAMBER DAY Speaker Biographies Barry DuVal President & CEO Virginia Chamber of Commerce Barry DuVal was named president and CEO of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce on April 28, 2010. Under his leadership, the Chamber has become Virginia’s largest business advocacy group, growing from 847 members in 2010 to more than 26,000 members today. In 2013, the Chamber produced Blueprint Virginia – the Commonwealth’s first comprehensive business-led initiative to provide direction and long-term economic development planning for Virginia. In 2017, the Chamber released an update to the original Blueprint, Blueprint Virginia 2025, which engaged over 6,000 business and community leaders from around the Commonwealth to build an action plan for strengthening Virginia’s economic competitiveness and getting Virginia back to the top of business climate rankings. Barry’s public service began in 1988 when he was elected to the Newport News City Council. In 1990 he was elected mayor of the city. He served as mayor from 1990 through 1996, when he stepped down to become the president and CEO of a regional economic development organization representing Southeast Virginia’s 1.6 million citizens. From 1998 through 2002 Barry served as the Secretary of Commerce and Trade for the Commonwealth of Virginia. During his term as Secretary, Virginia attracted a record-setting 1,500 economic development projects representing 156,850 new jobs and $13.7 billion in private investment. His private sector experience includes serving as president and CEO of DuVal Associates, Inc, a diversified real estate firm, from 1983-1996. Upon the completion of his term as the Secretary of Commerce and Trade, he served as president and CEO of Kaufman & Canoles Consulting, LLC, an economic development consulting firm specializing in public-private partnerships and strategic planning for business and government agencies. Mr. DuVal is a graduate of James Madison University and American University’s Washington College of Law. The Honorable Carrie Coyner Virginia House of Delegates Carrie serves the people of Chesterfield, Prince George and Hopewell in the Virginia House of Delegates, where she is developing a reputation for working across the aisle on improving our schools, protecting victims of domestic violence, and fighting drug addiction among teenagers. Carrie grew up in the Chester area, the same community she and her family still call home today. Her parents taught her from a young age to love people through service – and that means actually doing something. Before being elected to the House of Delegates, Carrie served her community on the Chesterfield County School Board, as a Board leader for the Chester YMCA, and on the Elizabeth Scott Elementary School PTA. She is currently the children’s choir director and a Sunday school teacher at Chester United Methodist Church. Carrie and her husband, Matt, have three children, ages 10, 12 and 13. Like most families, Carrie and her husband juggle school, sports, church and birthday parties all while trying to keep up with their day jobs. Matt runs a construction company and Carrie is the owner and founder of RudyCoyner Attorneys at law, where she practices business and real estate law for over 15 years. The Honorable Rip Sullivan House Democratic Caucus Chairman Virginia House of Delegates Richard “Rip” Sullivan, Jr. and his wife, Beth, were both raised and attended public schools in Northern Virginia. Before being elected to the House of Delegates in 2014, Rip served our region on numerous boards and commissions, which are listed here, providing him with extensive experience in a number of key policy areas that have directly translated to his work for the 48th District. Rip is Chair of the House Democratic Caucus, a leadership role in which he works with

    WHITEHEAD CONSULTING, LLC Government Relations and Public Affairs 28 North 8th Street, 2nd Floor - Richmond, Virginia 23219 www.whiteheadconsulting.net November 6, 2013 2013 Virginia Election Update On Tuesday, the Commonwealth of Virginia held the general election for the statewide offices of Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, and the House of Delegates. Around 37% of Virginian’s voted and as projected many of the races were highly contested. Terry McAuliffe, a Northern Virginia resident and Democrat squeaked by the current Republican Attorney General, Ken Cuccinelli by less than 2.5 percentage points. Robert Sarvis, the Libertarian candidate received 6.56% of the vote. Governor-Elect McAuliffe is calling for bi-partisanship compromise to better education, invest in modern transportation, and expand Medicaid in Virginia. In the Lieutenant Governor race, it was predicted pediatric neurologist and state senator Ralph Northam (D – Norfolk) would dominate in the polls and the results were conclusive. Lt. Governor-Elect Northam beat out Republican E.W. Jackson by 10.6%. The closest of the three statewide races was the battle between two state senators: Mark Obenshain (R – Harrisonburg) and Mark Herring (D – Leesburg). With the margin less than 1%, a recount is permitted as long as it is filed within 10 days the State Board of Elections concludes a result. A recount is underway and the earliest date for a new official calculation will be November 25th. There were two House Republican incumbent upsets. Delegate Mark Dudenhefer (R – Stafford) of the 2nd District lost by 1.4% to Democrat and non-profit founder Michael Futrell. In the 93rd District, incumbent Mike Watson (R – Williamsburg) lost to Democrat and attorney/bank director Monty Mason.
