RPV Statement on Webb’s “Build Back Better” Roundtable

Richmond, VA – Instead of pro-job and pro-growth policies, Cameron Webb and the rest of his Democrat colleagues are looking for solutions in the same place they have always fruitlessly looked: tax hikes and bigger government. Key Takeaways: Joe Biden and Cameron Webb’s Build Back Better “plan” is to hike taxes and massively increase the size of government. Biden’s childcare and eldercare “plan” calls for $775 billion in taxes and new government spending. Within just the last month, Biden has proposed more than $3.4 trillion in new taxes and spending.

RPV Statement on Tax Day

Richmond, VA – President Donald Trump made a promise to Virginians to cut their taxes, and he has delivered on this promise. In contrast, Joe Biden’s first moves in office would be to repeal the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, raise taxes, and kill jobs to support his socialist agenda. Americans can clearly see that President Trump has their best interests in mind and will overwhelmingly re-elect him in November.

Mob Rule

Richmond, VA – Today, the Mayor of Richmond, Virginia, Levar Stoney, began removal of the statue of Stonewall Jackson on Monument Avenue, despite lacking the legal authority to do so. Stoney’s latest stunt is not only illegal, it fuels the flames of the violent and chaotic protests. “Richmond is no longer run by the rule of law – it has devolved into anarchy,” said RPV Chairman Jack Wilson. “The loudest group of protesters or rioters are in control at any given moment. Caving to mob rule tells the mob that their violence and looting is the way to make change and that law and order is irrelevant.

RPV Condemns DPVA Resolution on Redistricting

Richmond, VA – At their virtual state convention this weekend, the establishment arm of the Democratic Party of Virginia adopted a resolution “rejecting the Virginia Redistricting Commission Constitutional Amendment.” This is a far cry from what Democrats campaigned on in 2019 and clamored for in the years proceeding. In August of 2017, then Minority Leader Eileen Filler-Corn tweeted: “Pleased to join great activists from @1VA2021 representing over 600 constituents who signed a petition supporting fair redistricting.” In June of 2018, DPVA Chairwoman Susan Swecker issued a statement in support of “getting rid of politically-drawn, gerrymandered House of Delegates districts.” In June of 2020, the Democratic establishment no longer

RPV Statement on DPVA Virtual Convention

Richmond, VA – Tonight, the Democrat Party of Virginia kicks off the first of three nights of their virtual state convention. RPV Chairman Jack Wilson released the following statement: “Much like their entire platform, the Virginia Democrats are going virtual. Their policies virtually work, legislation virtually helps, and messaging only appeals to a virtual audience. While we can’t expect anything substantive to come from their convention, we can bet that there will be enough virtue-signalling to make a brick wall cringe. “The Democrats have not taken the struggles that 2020 has thrown at us seriously, and that not-in-my-backyard attitude is underscored by the fact that

Northam Creates Nursing Home Death Camps

Richmond, VA – There are many things that will define Governor Ralph Northam’s legacy: blackface, KKK hoods, botched COVID-19 relief, bending the knee to a handful of rioters, abortion after birth, the list goes on. Unfortunately, one of the things he is likely not to be remembered for is his spearheading of the nursing-homes-to-death-homes movement. The Virginia Department of Health reported three new deaths from COVID-19 yesterday, but added FORTY (40) new deaths to its nursing home total. But this is far from the first time nursing homes have reportedfarworseconditions than what the general public is aware. “There is a massive problem taking place in
