The General Assembly has reorganized, added nearly twenty new members, and we inaugurated a new Governor on Saturday. The 36th District now overlaps with five new state delegates including four new women. I am looking forward to the new ideas and energy they bring.
This year brings a long session and a new two-year budget. The biggest news in Governor McAuliffe’s proposed budget was about $500 million of new education monies, a proposed funding solution for Metro, and $170,000 to finally clean up a derelict barge in Belmont Bay.
While we need to fix Metro, Governor McAuliffe’s proposed fix takes over half a billion dollars away from other Northern Virginia transportation projects and will serious jeopardize the current timeline on U.S. 1 projects in Fairfax County and potentially Prince William County. I cannot support it as written and will work to find other revenue sources to solve this problem.
