For all Virginians

Weekly Roundup – April 7

Ed released his “FAITH In Our Government for ALL Virginians” Plan on Thursday, the second in a series of major policy rollouts throughout the campaign. The 15-point FAITH plan will ensure Fairness, Accountability, Integrity, Transparency, and Honesty in government for ALL Virginians.

Government will be held accountable to “We the People,” and Virginians will have confidence that our leaders are serving us, not special interests.
