Since moving to Dale City in 1978, residential growth in our community has been a constant.
When I arrived, our population was less than 140,000 residents. Today, we’re over 440,000 people and counting.

This November, Prince William County has the opportunity to elect the individuals who will lead our local and state governments.
When choosing a leader, we all want to make sure we select the very best qualified person for the job which is not an easy task. It is for this reason that when we became aware of Andrea Bailey who is a Deaconess at a local church, highly educated, a small business owner with an extensive Human Resources experience, a military spouse, and advocate for family values with deep ties to Prince William County the Democratic Party requested that she run for office.
I write to publicly endorse Paul Ebert’s candidacy for Commonwealth’s Attorney of Prince William County.
I have served as a prosecutor in Alexandria for fourteen years, the past two as the elected Commonwealth’s Attorney.
Andrea Bailey is running as a Democrat for the Board of County Supervisors for the Potomac District.
This District has the largest African American population in the entire county and is a majority minority district.
As a Member of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors, I have strongly advocated for transparency in our local government.
Any elected official who is given the opportunity to serve holds the position as a public trust on behalf of the citizens who elected him or her. It is accordingly an elected official’s duty to be open when making decisions on behalf of the community and make sure that citizens understand how and why such decisions are being made.
There is only one candidate running for Chairman of the Prince William County School Board with a concrete plan and a price tag to reduce class sizes.
That’s why I’m supporting Tim Singstock for School Board Chairman. We can finally understand specific targets and a specific price tag for reducing classroom sizes. Tim’s plan will allow us to discuss the solution as taxpayers and families while empowering both our School Board and our County Supervisors to work together to achieve positive outcomes for our children.
