Opinion

I am writing to express our support for Mike May for Commonwealth Attorney.

I believe it is time for Prince William to change leadership and move forward. In the past two years we have had the unfortunate need to deal with Paul Ebert’s office. The experience was extremely upsetting to the children (victims) and my entire family for the lack of support for them and us during this horrible time.


Opinion

I barely know Mike May. I have only met him briefly three or four times. I couldn’t tell you if he is married or if he has any kids. I don’t golf with him. Never been to his house. Never watched a football game with him.

In fact, I don’t know much about his record as a public servant. But I am encouraging everyone I know to vote for him to be the next Commonwealth’s Attorney for Prince William County because of what I know about Paul Ebert.


Opinion

Potomac District School Board Member Betty Covington is a proven leader with considerable experience.

Betty has served as a teacher, principal and School Board Member.   With this background and an institutional memory for the evolution of our school system, Betty serves the County well in this, our most important responsibility as parents.  


Opinion

I have had the pleasure of observing, first hand, how hard Andrea Bailey is working to study the important issues facing Prince William County as she seeks a seat on the Board of Supervisors.

She understands that changes are needed in the way the county board operates to get things done for our students, our senior citizens and our homeless population, among others.

Opinion

Virginians deserve a healthy public discussion about how best to improve our transportation system. But that discussion must also be grounded in fact, not political rhetoric.  Unfortunately, the leadership of the House Republican Caucus is engaged in a campaign of misleading and flatly incorrect information on the McAuliffe administration’s proposal to improve I-66 inside the Beltway. So in the interest of good public policy, here are the facts.

Fact 1: Despite unfounded claims to the contrary, dynamic tolling on I-66 will reduce congestion.
