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. Note that many issues that affect small business are addressed in committees and never make it to a floor vote in the House or Senate.

Photo by Michaele White | Governor’s Office The Virginia Association of Counties, the Virginia Municipal League and Virginia First Cities met with Governor Terry McAuliffe and his staff on September 29 to discuss key issues of importance to local government in the upcoming General Assembly session, beginning with an update from the Task Force for Local Government Mandate Review and concluding with a robust discussion among local elected officials about shared concerns. Governor McAuliffe provided an overview of his Administration’s recent accomplishments, including an agreement on improvements to Interstate 66, enhancements to the school breakfast program, efforts to expand the capacity of the Port of Virginia and work to assist Dulles Airport with retention of its major carriers (the Governor later announced United Airlines had agreed to a long-term lease extension that afternoon). The Governor reiterated the need to diversify Virginia’s economy and lessen its dependence on federal spending, particularly in light of a potential second round of sequestration scheduled to take place in October 2017. He signaled that Medicaid expansion remains a priority for his Administration, though he indicated that he remains at an impasse with the majority in the General Assembly on this issue.

  • 2015 VOR Report from Virginia This Letter Shared with Our Parents In
    2015 VOR Report from Virginia This letter shared with our parents in February 2015 is a report on actions taken by the Administration that thwarted the efforts of our supporters in the Virginia Senate and House during the 2015 session to preserve the Training Center option. The result means the closure of NVTC will happen. Our letter also summarizes the actions and those of the Parents and Associates Board that entitle your loved ones to quality care in the placements you choose for them. NVTC Likely to Close; Your Rights to Quality Care for Your Loved Ones With the 2015 session of the General Assembly scheduled to end on February 28, enough action or inaction has taken place to report where things stand with respect to the future of NVTC and the other Training Centers. The bottom line is that the McAuliffe Administration appears determined to close NVTC, and the General Assembly will take no direct steps to stop it; hence, NVTC is very likely to close. The future of CVTC and SWVTC remains unclear. Despite the likely closure of NVTC, we have accomplished a great deal in our three years of advocacy. As a result, you have legal rights to more residential options than were proposed in the original Settlement Agreement, and assurances from both the Commonwealth and DBHDS that your loved ones will receive care that is “comparable” to that received at NVTC in their new settings. Late last year, Virginia State Senators Newman and Puller, Delegate Eileen Filler-Corn, Bill Murray (the policy director for then Governor-elect McAuliffe’s transition team), and Peter Kinzler met with the Governor and his staff to urge him to keep NVTC and the other Centers open.

  • Ninety Percent of VEA Fund-Backed Candidates Win June 11 Primaries
    116 South Third Street ∙ Richmond, VA 23219 www.veanea.org ∙ 800-552-9554 (Toll Free) ∙ 804-775-8379 (Fax) For Immediate Release – June 12, 2019 Contact: John O’Neil, VEA Communications, 804-775-8316, [email protected] Ninety percent of VEA Fund-backed candidates win June 11 primaries Nine of 10 candidates recommended by the Virginia Education Association Fund for Children and Public Education who participated in primaries yesterday won their races, says Jim Livingston, chair of the VEA Fund. “The VEA Fund rigorously evaluates candidates for public office to make sure they support students in our public schools and those who work with them,” said Livingston, who is president of the 40,000- member VEA. “Our strong showing in yesterday’s primary elections is testimony to the quality of our process and to the candidates who prevailed. We believe it also shows the public cares deeply about education and will support candidates with the ideas and commitment to move us forward. Congratulations to these nine supporters of our students.” VEA Fund-backed candidates who won yesterday were: Senate: Lynwood Lewis (6th); Cheryl Turpin (7th); Barbara Favola (31st); Jennifer Boysko (33rd); and Dick Saslaw (35th). House of Delegates: Israel O’Quinn (5th); Kaye Kory (38th); Alfonso Lopez (49th); and Luke Torian (52nd). Rosalyn Dance (Senate, 16th), recommended by the VEA Fund, was upset in her primary. Livingston said of Dance, “Senator Dance has been consistent in her strong support of our public schools, and in this last legislative session she helped to win the biggest increase in state funding for much-needed school counselors in 30 years.

    Governor Terry McAuliffe Four Years: Celebrating the New Virginia Economy 2 Celebrating the New Virginia Economy 10 Reforming Education 13 Promoting Homegrown Industries 15 First Lady Dorothy Mcauliffe 18 Restoring and Protecting Voting Rights My fellow Virginians, 22 Ensuring a Healthy Virginia Four years ago, I promised that this administration would be singularly focused on creating good jobs, diversifying our economy, reforming our approach to public education and transportation, and protecting the 26 Serving Virginia’s Veterans and Military Community rights of all Virginians—from the ballot box to your doctor’s offi ce. 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.

  • 2018 General Assembly Updates from VFA Trucking and Transportation
    2018 General Assembly Updates from VFA The Virginia General Assembly convened on January 10, 2018. Since entering into session, a total of nearly 3,300 bills, resolutions, and joint resolutions had been introduced for consideration by our state Senators and Delegates. Of this total, slightly more than 2,600 were actual bills that could make changes to the Code of Virginia. Well more than half of these bills have already failed to pass. VFA has been diligently reviewing, monitoring, and acting on legislation with potential impact on our wide array of forest product businesses, woodland owners, forestry professionals, and other forestry stakeholder members. This list of bills and resolutions includes those primarily classified into groups of trucking and transportation, conservation of our water resources, tax and property rights laws with potential impact on landowners, energy, and numerous others concerning forest landowners and the forest industry. We are also working on the state budget in terms of specific budget items of importance to forestry, particularly as applies to programs of the Virginia Department of Forestry. The intense state advocacy aspect of VFA’s purpose will continue until the General Assembly’s scheduled adjournment on March 10. Following is a more detailed listing and look at some of the key legislation on VFA’s plate (click on the bill links to see the bills and General Assembly actions): Trucking and Transportation HB 125 – Delegate Terry Austin’s bill to add rough-sawn green lumber to the list of forest products eligible for the state’s overweight forest products hauling permit passed in both the House and Senate and is awaiting the Governor’s signature.
