Virginia has always been a place businesses can count on, and that didn't happen by accident. It happened because the Commonwealth keeps its word.

Ask your lawmakers to honor existing commitments and keep Virginia open for business.

Amazing to welcome Secretary of Commerce and Trade Carrie Chenery with VIPC to Charlottesville for @TomTomFest Festival to celebrate Virginia’s innovators and entrepreneurs. The Secretary’s unifying and inspirational opening remarks kicked off a phenomenal Innovation Summit Day.

Thank you Paul Beyer and entire Tom Tom team for bringing the community together to connect and continue to find opportunity for positive impact.

Virginia’s Veteran community is one of our Commonwealth’s greatest assets.

We are working to make sure that when servicemembers transition to civilian life, they can find a good career.

Today at Fort Eustis, I launched a new career event to connect Veterans with apprenticeships.

VIPC President and CEO Joe Benevento recently presented to the @VAChamber alongside Deputy Secretary of Commerce Kristen Dahlman.

Joe shared how VIPC is growing Virginia’s innovation ecosystems to attract talent and capital, while accelerating growth, opportunity, and impact through collaboration and public-private partnership.

Thank you to Virginia Chamber of Commerce President Keith Martin and Board Chair Jen Siciliano for supporting Virginia innovation and entrepreneurship.

Virginia is where innovation thrives!

Virginia shouldn't be locked into an untested federal drug pricing framework — and that's a win for patients and businesses alike. Thank you, Governor Spanberger, for a deliberate approach that protects both access and innovation. #VirginiaPolicy #LifeSciences #PrescriptionDrugs

Blueprint Virginia 2035 supports workforce preparation through industry-recognized credentials. HB 332 / SB 203 increases the supply of CTE teachers statewide, helping close the skills gap. We applaud Gov. Spanberger for signing these bills into law. 🎓https://t.co/EYUW2AWluH

Virginia is the only state without meaningful summary judgment — a tool to dismiss baseless claims before costly trials. We appreciate Gov. Spanberger's amendments to HB 449 & SB 229, consistent with Blueprint Virginia 2035: https://t.co/3O1ye1R00s

A state-run leave program will cost employers and employees over $1 billion each year and require the state to hire an additional 250 employees to administer a paid family and medical leave insurance program.

[Virginia Chamber @VAChamber]

We are appreciative that @GovernorVA vetoed #SB373, which would disincentivize employers from providing employer sponsored leave.
