PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. -- Tom Perriello spent an hour and a half defending positions he once took as a Virginia Congressman, trying to convince Democratic voters that he's changed his ways.
The Democrat who is running against current Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam in a June 13 Primary Election took center stage at the Southlake Community Center in Montclair on Friday night. He laid out a vision for the state that entails free two-year tuition for community college students, expanding Medicare, more school funding, and raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour.
"What does $28,000 a year look like? Some call it $15 an hour. I call it dignity. When you're looking at $28,000 a year, you can start to exhale," said Perriello of people in Northern Virginia working two or more jobs to support their families.
