Let’s let Governor McDonnell know that we’re willing to make the investment into improving transportation in Virginia. Join with me in sending Governor McDonnell 10 cents for every gallon of gas you purchase per month.

Elections have consequences. Votes do matter. The outcomes of McDonnell’s election are very clear, and the list is growing.

Virginia Beach Mayor Will Sessoms will be announcing today that the city will purchase a $40 million right of way from Norfolk Southern to be used as a route for light-rail in Virginia Beach.
