CHART OF THE DAY: Because Virginia is growing – Virginia has jobs! With nearly 270,000 jobs filled in the last four years, 255,000 jobs open today, and $157 billion in private business investment bringing a total of 135,000 long-term and construction jobs, we’re at 650,000 jobs connected to Virginia’s dynamic growth.

CHART OF THE DAY: Virginia’s revenues are $1.2B ahead of forecast! The strong year-over-year increase is not noise, it’s real. It reflects strong job creation, rising incomes, healthy consumer activity, and disciplined fiscal stewardship.

Because of this performance, revenues could decline by 1.6 percent over the rest of the year, and we would still meet our forecast.

That is the strength of the Commonwealth’s financial position under our commonsense agenda — more jobs and lower tax burdens yield strong revenues.

CHART OF THE DAY: We promised to make government work for you and not the other way around — and that includes the DMV! Average wait times are down to as low as 5.9 minutes and our call center staff is handling 94 percent of inbound calls. Thank you to Secretary Shep Miller, Commissioner Gerald Lackey, and the entire team at VA DMV for their tireless work to keep Virginia moving!

Four years after launching our Partnership for Petersburg initiative, this community is safer, healthier, and financially stronger than ever before. By uniting local, state, and now federal partners — alongside leadership from our private sector — we’re delivering transformative results for Virginians.

Suzanne and I were honored to welcome Secretary Scott Turner, along with U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services leadership, to Petersburg as we joined Mayor Sam Parham for our final Partnership for Petersburg event to announce seven major initiatives that will continue transforming this great city.

Together, we’re making Virginia homes healthy again and building a brighter future for every Petersburg resident.

CHART OF THE DAY: Virginia’s Employment Commission was once ranked last or near-last in the nation — broken systems, delayed payments, and failing Virginians.

Today: a complete turnaround.

• Top tier among peer states with similar workforce sizes
• #1 among peer states in Determinations Timeliness
• #2 in Determinations vs. neighboring states
• #3 among peer states in First Payment Timeliness
• Outperforming states like PA, NC, and MD
• Backlog completely eliminated!

We promised to fix the VEC and make this critical agency work for Virginians. Thank you to Secretary Bryan Slater, our two outstanding commissioners, Carrie Roth and Mitch Melis, and their entire teams for their tireless effort.

Virginia continues to lead the way on disaster recovery from Hurricane Helene. This week, Farm Recovery Block Grant payments are going out to farmers and forest landowners across Southwest Virginia.

In September, Virginia was the first state to open Farm Recovery block grants with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Thank you to Secretary Rollins and the Trump Administration for working with us to deliver support to Virginia’s agricultural communities.

CHART OF THE DAY: On day one, we promised to jumpstart job and business growth with catalyzing investments in infrastructure, particularly on business-ready sites. Over the past four years, we’ve delivered more than $550 million in infrastructure investments that have driven hundreds of thousands of new jobs and $156 billion in private business expansion. The dividends from this infusion of capital are only beginning to be paid, with 85,000 new permanent jobs and 40,000 construction jobs already in the pipeline from announced economic development projects!

On National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day we honor the brave men and women who put on the badge, run towards danger every day, and whose service keeps Virginia’s communities safe.

Suzanne and I are deeply grateful for their courage, commitment and sacrifice, and for the families who stand behind them.

Virginia Backs the Blue and stands proudly with our law enforcement heroes who protect and serve across our Commonwealth.
