My first bill passed the Senate today! We are one step closer to making the CODI Alert law. It is wonderful seeing the bipartisanship when it comes to making our kids safer.

I have no intention of being a do nothing Senator. We need to dismantle “blue brick wall” between us, but if there has to be a barrier, let’s make it a picket fence with a gate so we can have conversations with each other and get the job done for all Virginians.

Spot on. Cracking down on crime and fixing the economy go hand-in-hand.

Too many Virgnians still struggle with sky-high healthcare bills at the doctor’s office and the pharmacy. A one-size-fits all approach will not work. The best way to cut prices is to increase competition - not grow the government.
