The Cuccinelli Compass - A Grassroots Update: This past week was a great and exciting one for our campaign that kicked off with an important endorsement from the political arm of the Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC). After conducting in person interviews featuring a thorough review of each candidate’s platform and proposals, the group determined that Ken’s experience and command of the issues are what Virginia needs. They agreed that Ken’s substantive economic plan to create 58,000 new, good paying jobs and lower taxes on both individuals and businesses is the best approach for Virginia’s future. Hearing the news, Ken was thrilled saying that, “NVTC is one of the premier business organizations in America” and that he was grateful for their support. On Friday, Ken took a strong stand against President Obama’s new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations that effectively ban the production of new coal-fired plants in Southwest Virginia or anywhere else. These new rules are more than just a threat to affordable energy that heats our homes and fuels our economy; they are the latest escalation in the war on coal that has and will continue to devastate entire communities and hike electricity rates for families and businesses across the Commonwealth. Ken has a proven record of standing up for Virginia. As Attorney General, he teamed up with the Democrat-controlled Fairfax County Board of Supervisors to fight the EPA and won. As Ken said yesterday, he’s “the only candidate in this race who has fought to protect Virginia jobs and sensible energy policy that keeps electricity costs manageable,” and he’ll continue to do that as Governor. Also this week, Florida Republicans Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio joined Ken on the campaign trail. Former Governor Bush talked about Ken’s bold plan to give parents more options so that no child is stuck in a failing school, and he got it right when he said that “Ken is exactly the type of solid principled leader Virginia needs to grow the economy, create jobs and ease burdens on middle class families.” In Richmond, Senator Rubio spoke about what’s at stake in this year’s election and contrasted Ken’s strong support of free enterprise and limited government with his opponent. With that in mind, and the election is just six weeks away, now is the time for all of Ken’s supporters to rally together for one big push to help us cross the finish line. Ken has spent his entire career fighting for Virginia, now it’s time for you to fight for him. Here’s are few actions you can take to help Ken secure victory on November 5th: Knock on 100 doors Find ten people and convince them to vote for Ken Share Ken’s substantive policy proposals with friends and family Volunteer at one of our call centers/victory centers Ken needs your help to keep the momentum going.
