Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2015
Issues: Employment and Affirmative Action Entitlements and the Safety Net

I support raising the minimum and tipped wages, and support legislation to increase them here in Virginia. We also must acknowledge the thousands of Virginians who are currently seeking employment. I oppose efforts to roll back the social safety net that is so important to unemployed Virginians searching for work.

We can grow our economy by expanding workforce training programs, increasing access to capital for small businesses, and creating incentives for small business development.
