State Senator Stephen H. Martin of Chesterfield County apparently thinks so. Martin has introduced S.B 812 to amend the Virginia Freedom of Information Act so that names of local government officials/employees could not be identified along with job titles/positions and salaries. The first question that comes to mind is what business owner/boss does not know [...]

Governor McDonnell Report to VTTP Executive Committee

Repeal ObamaCare
Sign The Petition
Strike down the Obamacare individual mandate as unconstitutional
Strike down the Obamacare individual mandate as unconstitutional
We, the undersigned Americans, urge the Supreme Court to find the Obamacare individual mandate unconstitutional and strike down the law.
Ours is supposed to be a system of limited government that protects individual freedom. The individual mandate, if allowed to stand, would completely subvert our founding principles. Upholding the mandate would result in a government with no limits on its power that, far from protecting freedom, will extinguish it and can commandeer the population time and again on even the flimsiest of rationales. The federal government was never intended to have this kind of power to trample the individual.
Sincerely,
[Your Signature]
