SUMMARY:PolicyMaker: General Assembly Post-Legislative Forum
DESCRIPTION:The 2020 General Assembly Session has come to a close and significant changes are in store for Virginia in the coming years. Lawmakers showed long-term foresight in passing legislation that supports the needs of our growing economy such as increased funding for affordable housing\, transportation\, and education. Unfortunately a number of bills were passed that will increase the cost of doing business in Virginia\, but many far-reaching bills that would have a significant negative affect on our position as the #1 State for Business were defeated including efforts to repeal right-to-work\, fair-share fees for all non-union employees\, and the Virginia Green New Deal failed to advance. \nJoin us as we hear from members of the Loudoun delegation on the progress they have made and the work that is left to ensure that our community remains a top destination for new economic growth and talent attraction during this dynamic shift in the Commonwealth. Each of our invited speakers were influential in moving forward important legislation that will have lasting impacts on the business community and residents of Loudoun County. \nFeatured Panelists: \n• Senator John Bell\n• Senator Jennifer Boysko\n• Delegate David Reid\n• Delegate Suhas Subramanyam
