In 2013, when I first ran for the House of Delegates, I promised to advocate for full restoration of lottery funds previously dedicated to our schools. Each year I have advocated for and the General Assembly has returned a percentage of these monies. This year an additional 34.7 million of additional lottery funds will go back to Virginia's schools. As a member of House Education Committee, I remain committed to advocating for you on the state level, ensuring our public schools have the resources they need for our children to succeed.
