Read her recent op-ed in the Richmond Times Dispatch:
Commentary: For Virginia, drop in business rankings a wakeup call
From that column:
We need new statewide leadership to:
• Stand up to federal job cuts by building a bipartisan coalition in Richmond to demand thoughtful, strategic plans — not partisan theatrics;
• invest in workforce retraining programs that are targeted, substantial and connected to highly-skilled employees;
• defend the autonomy, academic freedom and research programs of our institutions of higher education;
• and strengthen our public PK–12 system by expanding STEM, civics, global understanding, early childhood and educator support, so that every community is able to contribute to our next generation of talent.
