I am also seeking delegates and senators to consider introducing a study bill to finally ask the question that this Commonwealth needs: The feasibility and costs of expanding, not Medicare, but our crazy quilt public defender system (City of Richmond has a public defender office but not Henrico, nor Chesterfield nor Hanover Counties for example.)

‘During the debate over this law, citizens in the Commonwealth were told they could easily access information about their health care choices and join the system, well that proved to be untrue. They were told their premiums wouldn’t increase, that proved to be false. And they were told they could keep access to their insurance […]

In our continuing coverage of the Libertarians in Virginia, we have a third poll: Quinnipiac College in Connecticut. Great college, Quinnipiac but terrible poll. They left out Robert Sarvis the Libertarian! Shame on them. Sarvis is on the ballot in the Commonwealth. But it does tend to show that Sarvis has genuine support as only […]

I have admired Supervisor Elton Wade for some time. I believe him to be a man of integrity and strong personal faith. Since I read what people have compiled and stated about his crossing guard salary, and since as a follower of Christ, it seemed right to me – I decided to contact Supervisor Wade […]
