I want to commend state Sen. Richard Stuart for his tremendous leadership during his first legislative session in the state capital. He followed through on his campaign pledge to tackle tough issues such as illegal immigration, environmental stewardship, tax relief, and bringing transportation tax dollars back to our district. As a former prosecutor, Sen. Stuart takes seriously the problem Because Sen. Stuart cares about the environment, he sponsored Senate Bill 135, which promotes responsible nutrient management. It requires lawn- Both bills aim to reduce pollutants and improve the health and vitality of our critical water systems. He is committed to doing what he can to help lower taxes for families; his sponsorship of Senate Bill 168 provides income tax credits for volunteer firefighters and emergency service personnel. Senate Bill 153 requires VDOT to establish a program that has nonviolent offenders mow and landscape rights-of-way on Virginia's roads and highways. This bill has criminals earning their keep and performing a community service. It frees more money to fix congestion on our roadways. This may have been his first year as Steven Apicella Stafford Steven Apicella is a former chairman
Lawn care company legislation and inmates doing landscaping. Wow, that's tremendous !!!!! Now what about the 800 pound gorilla and the #1 quality of life issue in our area....TRANSPORTATION. Our state and federal lawmakers have ignored their constituents and have failed to bring home the bacon.
