Virginia House of Delegates - District 13

Top Issues

Economy I will work to reduce the burdens of over regulation and taxation on business and specifically launch legislative initiatives to limit the impacts of permitting and licensing that can be imposed on our startups and contractors. Government Reform We absolutely need Representatives in Richmond who will call for reasonable term limits to end these districts that are handed down like a grant to royalty after decades long runs. Housing ADU’s offer a simple solution to affordable housing both for extended families and renters. Education We need to require our schools to keep parents informed of interactions with their children. Taxes / Budget Introduce a Taxpayers Bill of Rights. Housing We have a large surplus of office and commercial space that could and honestly should be converted to affordable housing. Our legislature needs to incentivize re-development of these buildings by easing restrictions in zoning and permitting for such projects. Taxes / Budget End the Taxation of Military Pensions. Education Every student removed from our public school system takes a burden off the taxpayer and the school’s budget. We need to incentivize that by providing a rebate to parents who choose to enroll their children in alternative and private schools. Taxes / Budget Eliminate Virginia’s Car Tax.
