Friends of the Gateway Region,
In announcing Virginia once again was its Top State for Business, CNBC pointed out key ingredients that distinguished the leaders. What differentiated Virginia to land in the top spot was our education system and business environment that fosters corporate growth, from supportive regulations to operational infrastructures.
None of that happens without building effective relationships with lawmakers at every level.
On Sept. 4, we’re hosting a “meet and greet” with state and local representatives from our region. While the legislature doesn’t convene until January, opportunities like these allow us to identify issues where we need their early action and support to protect our state’s leadership position. In these months leading up to the General Assembly, our leaders set legislative priorities and develop budget proposals.
We encourage you to come and get to know your elected leaders. Ask questions and find out what’s on their minds. We’ve included details and a registration link below.
I’ll see you there.
