As I’ve knocked on doors and talked on the phone with fellow residents this spring, I’ve learned just how much the people of Prince William County truly care about our community. They recognize our strengths and our weaknesses. They celebrate our successes, but they also clearly feel the impacts of the challenges we face together.

Whether it’s over-crowded classrooms in our schools, stifling traffic on our roads or slow economic development and job growth in our County, these are the issues that hit closest to home for Prince William families. They are also the issues that we have the greatest opportunity to address right here at the local level.
