2024 Session Update Week 8

The General Assembly convened on January 10th. I am working hard with Governor Glenn Youngkin, Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears, and fellow legislators to make Virginia the best place to live, work, and raise a family. There are so many threats to Virginia: skyrocketing costs, the mess in our schools, the fentanyl streaming across the border. Will the Democrats help us solve these problems?

Session will be over March 9th, we have one week to go.

Here is some of what is on my mind and what we have been up to:

SB 222 Cyber Security Passes Both Chambers

My bill SB 222 on cyber security passed both chambers and is headed to the governors desk! With cyber security threats on the rise, it is imperative we take action to secure our Commonwealth’s infrastructure and protect tax payer data.

SB 630 Dispatchers/ First Responders Passes Both Chambers!

My dispatchers bill (SB 630) passed the House and is now awaiting the Governor’s signature. Thank you to all first responders for the incredible work you do in keeping our communities safe! Click here to learn why this is so important.

SB 603 Priority Treatment Jailed Pregnant and Addicted Women Passes the House Appropriations Committee

My bill SB 603, which will give incarcerated pregnant women preferential treatment for drug rehab programs, is headed to the House floor. I have visited the women's jail in Goochland County and I've heard reports around the district about the challenges faced by pregnant women in jail to attend drug rehab programs. Incarcerated pregnant women (those held in federal or state prisons, jails, or juvenile detention facilities) make up one of the most vulnerable segments of society, with higher rates of mental illness, drug addiction, and histories of trauma than incarcerated men. This bill will create a work group to find answers on how to help rehabilitate young and not so young women with the triple threat of being incarcerated, being pregnant, and being addicted.

Naloxone Training

Monday the 26th was Opioid Overdose and Naloxone Education (OONE) Day at the General Assembly. Revive! is the training program implemented by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. It is important to know how to correctly administer naloxone for opioid overdose in critical life-saving instances. I had the privilege of participating in the official training and earning my certificate.

In 2018, I passed a bill (HB 1556) that required school nurses to keep naloxone (Brand names: Narcan, Evzio) in their clinics. This measure has helped nurses provide lifesaving interventions in numerous schools across the Commonwealth.

Pastor Visit

Thomas Alvis, pastor of Mount Moriah Church in Powhatan County, came with church members to pray over me in my office. My Christian faith is central to my life, and I ask all of you to pray that God would give me strength, courage, and wisdom throughout my time here in the General Assembly.

Uncle Pat/ Aunt Linda

My aunt and family came to receive a memorial resolution on behalf of my late uncle Pat "MAC" McGuire, a Vietnam veteran, in the Old Senate Chamber. Senator DeSteph gave a touching introduction to my family and I was honored to be able to commemorate the life of my uncle. click here

Celebrating 100 Years of Fox Hunting

We met with the Keswick Hunt Club and Deep Run Hunt Club along with their junior pony club and other fox hunting clubs including the Old Dominion foxhounds. Caroline Eichler of Deep Run Hunt and Raina LaBonte of Louisa County High were two representatives and constituents who visited for Foxhunting Day at the Capital. I was provided the opportunity to give a speech on behalf of our local fox hunting clubs at the bell tower rally in the Capital Square.

I'm running for Congress because the enemy isn't at the gate -- the enemy is THROUGH the gate and in our communities. Open borders, fentanyl, lawlessness, out of control spending, and more. Our country is in big trouble. I am running to represent the people of the 5th Congressional District because I am a conservative with a record of building teams to solve problems. We can do better than Good.

I've been all over the district and I can tell you the 5th Congressional District loves Trump and the America First Agenda!

I invite you and your friends to join me in this cause. Take care, please spread the word and I look forward to seeing you around the district!
