Greenway News


Last week, the State Corporation Commission denied the Dulles Greenway's request for five years of peak toll increases. This is a big win for Loudoun County commuters! I'm glad that the SCC made the right choice here by denying a peak toll increase, and I'm confident that the Greenway bill I carried and passed in the General Assembly this year will continue us on this new path.

 

You can read more about this Greenway decision here.

Early voting for the June 8th primaries is underway! The offices that will be on the June 8th ballot are:

Vaccine News

Vaccines are becoming more and more accessible every day! As of this week, both Loudoun and Prince William County have exhausted their vaccine appointment waitlists, and are scheduling appointments directly online and by phone. You can schedule your vaccine appointment at Dulles Town Center in Loudoun County, or for multiple locations in Prince William County. Additionally, the community vaccination center at Gander Mountain in Woodbridge is accepting a small number of walk-ins per day.

The federal government has also launched a new website -- Vaccines.gov. This website makes it easy to find vaccine appointments at pharmacies and clinics near you. For Spanish speakers, you can visit Vacunas.gov.
