  • Rockingham County Rally


    Hello!

    It's very good to see you all here today in Rockingham County. This county will be very important in deciding this election! You have supported both Republicans and Democrats in recent years. Now we are all here today because we believe in something bigger than any one of us. We believe in Virginia — a Virginia that is strong, a Virginia that leads, and a Virginia that fights for its values. I promise that if you vote for me in this election I will keep Virginia, our home, strong.

    I'd like to start my speech talking about energy. My opponent has immediately jumped on the attack against me suggesting that my vision for this state is focusing on the past rather than the present or future. I am a steadfast believer in the future of Virginia. That starts with our energy policy. I foresee a future where Virginia is a leader in nuclear energy. Now of course, we can't focus simply on that. We have to have a pragmatic approach since we aren't ready to completely get rid of natural gas although I know Democrats would tell you we are. The electricity this state produces is still primarily from natural gas sources. The reality is we can't cut away from that overnight. However, we need to start focusing on our future. Nuclear energy is the best solution for us. We don't live in Kansas where the wind sweeps down the plains or Arizona where the sun always is shining even when we're freezing and navigating the snow in January. 

    As Governor, I will also focus my energy on removing the unfair burdens that have been placed upon you by the current economic climate. I will put an end to runaway property taxes that are making it harder for Virginians to stay in their homes and forcing many of our seniors, working families, and small business owners to struggle unnecessarily. It’s time we implement real caps and get serious to stop these unchecked hikes that no one actually knows what they are paying for and provide homeowners with the relief they deserve. Virginians shouldn’t have to worry about losing their homes due to skyrocketing property taxes.

    And let’s talk about the grocery sales tax while we're discussing the unfair burden that has been placed upon you — it’s long past time to eliminate it. We are all paying more and more just to put food on the table, and a grocery sales tax only makes it harder. Eliminating the grocery sales tax is about fairness and common sense — no family should be penalized for buying basic necessities. Together, we can provide meaningful tax relief and help families keep more of their hard-earned money.

    When our kids and grandkids look at this election, they will see it was about protecting our freedoms and securing opportunity for every family that have made this state and this country great. Together, we are going to bring common-sense leadership back to Richmond and make Virginia the place where the American dream thrives!

    So, are you ready to fight for Virginia? Are you ready to usher in a new, greater era of Virginia? If so, let's get out there and show the whole world the power of our great commonwealth!
