Update Aug 31 Big Amazon Project in Louisa/ List of Events/ Trump/ Other

Friends,

We are looking forward to a wonderful Labor Day weekend with family and friends. It has been fun meeting and listening to folks like you while campaigning around the district. As Governor Glenn Youngkin says, we "must lock arms" and win in November. Because, right now, that is all that matters!

As you know, the General Assembly still has not passed the update to the budget where we hope to give Virginia Tax Payers another one billion dollars in tax relief, support education, law enforcement, veterans, and more. Hopefully the Democrats will support these efforts to help the folks. So, we are going into session next Wednesday September 6 to hopefully finalize the budget.

FYI, the all new General Assembly building is open to the public October 11. I'm looking forward working and representing you as your next State Senator of District 10 there soon!

Louisa County 11 Billion Dollar Project

For over a year now, on the campaign trail, Louisa County residents pointed out to us a need to lower the real estate tax rate in Louisa County to even out the huge cost of living increase in Louisa caused by the over 40% increase in real estate tax assessments. It was explained, this is especially important for folks living on a fixed income. The announcement of the Amazon Web Service's (AWS) 11 billion dollar Data Center investment in Louisa County comes from what appears to be an opportunity to create jobs and increase the Louisa County tax revenues without adding new subdivisions, roof tops, increased pressure on K-12, and other revenue consumers. We hear about the negative effects to families caused by the ever increasing cost of living at just about every door we knock. It is my hope that the real estate taxes paid by AWS will encourage the Louisa County Board of Supervisors to lower taxes and and give the folks some relief.

I will give you a more thorough Senate District 10 update after next week. Here is a few upcoming events for you to attend/ share.

Goochland Tea Party Tent

Stop by the Goochland Tea Party tent each Saturday 10am to 4pm at 30 Broad Street Road, Manakin Sabot, VA, 23103 next to the Food Lion in Centerville each Saturday from now to November 7. Stop by and learn about local politics, meet local candidates, get yard signs, Trump gear, McGuire gear, and more. Please bring a friend!

Trump

The first former US President to get a mug shot. This is ridiculous. We definitely have a two-tiered justice system. Are we a Banana Republic or what? Please pray for Trump! You can support Trump here.

Be "numb to the dumb", keep it positive, and stay focused on the mission. God willing, I will win in November and continue to serve you in the Virginia State Senate. Our goal is to get as many fellow Virginia Republicans elected as possible so we can stop the nonsense. Don't forget early voting begins September 22. Please consider supporting Governor Youngkin's effort to "Secure Your Vote". Take care, please spread the word, and I look forward to seeing you around the District!

This election is too important

Robert,

Virginia's future will be decided in just a couple of months, when every seat in our General Assembly is on the ballot this November.

This election is too important for you to sit on the sidelines. Your vote will make the difference in the outcome of this election and the continued success of our Commonwealth.

That's why Governor Glenn Youngkin is asking you to SECURE YOUR VOTE TODAY.

Governor Youngkin launched Secure Your Vote Virginia to make sure Republicans compete in early and absentee voting, so we're not going into Election Day down thousands of votes.

To secure your vote today, just click here. That link will take you directly to a form that is simple to complete and will make sure your voice is heard in this critical election.

SECURE YOUR VOTE NOW

Friend, when Republicans vote, Republicans win. You do not want a flat tire or bad weather or any unexpected life event to get in the way of casting your vote on Election Day. By securing your vote NOW, you can be certain your vote is counted.

We only need to win a few seats to keep our majority in the House and flip the Senate. If we do that, Governor Youngkin will have committed allies in the General Assembly to pass his commonsense agenda to lower the cost of living, deliver tax relief for hardworking families, empower parents in education, and give our law enforcement the resources they need to keep our communities safe.

But none of that is possible without you.

By taking just a few minutes to secure your vote today, you will help secure a brighter future for Virginia for decades to come.

Thank you for your continued support.

Team Youngkin

We are officially less than ONE MONTH from the start of early voting in Virginia, which means it's time to get in the game.

That's why Governor Youngkin launched SECURE YOUR VOTE VIRGINIA - to make sure Republicans compete in early and absentee voting in this critical election. There are step-by-step instructions on the portal, and you can track your ballot to make sure your vote is counted.

Robert, this election is too important to sit on the sidelines.

The future success of our Commonwealth will be decided in just a couple of months. Together, we can make Virginia the best place to live, work, and raise a family.

But we need to elect committed allies to the General Assembly who will advance a commonsense agenda to lower the cost of living, deliver tax relief for hardworking Virginians, restore excellence in education with parents at the head of the table, and protect our communities from violent crime and fentanyl poison.

And we NEED YOU to make that happen.

Don't wait – now is the time to make sure your voice is heard in this election by SECURING YOUR VOTE.

By securing your vote, you can help secure a brighter future for Virginia and take our Commonwealth to the next level.
