Governor McDonnell, Take a Balanced Approach to Fixing Virginia's Budget!

Governor McDonnell's "cuts only" approach to our budget is hurting our schools, roads, environment, health care, and slowing down our economic recovery. We need a balanced approach—including new revenue from closing costly and inefficient loopholes—not more cuts.

Why is this important?

The Governor has slashed funding for schools, roads, healthcare, and first responders, and with another billion dollar shortfall he may try again. However, there is a better way: a balanced approach that includes bringing in new revenue by closing ineffective or inefficient loopholes will save jobs and protect our economy. We're calling on the Governor to take a balanced approach to this shortfall!
