Welcome to my online constituent office. We hope you will find this website to be a useful one-stop portal for any needs you might have from the Virginia state government. We have included information to help you better understand how our government works.
You can also keep up with the policy-making process in the General Assembly during the weeks that I am working in Richmond by reading my blogs and Twitter updates.
As your State Delegate, I’m here to serve you so please contact me with any questions or services you need. I am particularly interested in hearing about ways to make our laws work better for all of us so please do not hesitate to send me policy ideas that I may be able to propose in Richmond. I am honored to represent you and I look forward to meeting you in person.
Thank you,

Keam-Poindexter-McDonnell-McAuliffe and Green Jobs
Today’s article in Washington Post refers to possible new jobs that could be created in Virginia under the “green jobs” bill that Delegate Keam is working on with other Republican legislators. Delegate Keam’s bill, HB 1132, became part of Gov. McDonnell’s jobs legislative agenda, along with Delegate Charles Poindexter’s bill, HB 803.

McAuliffe and McDonnell could partner on the purchase of paper mill
On the day that Gov. Bob McDonnell makes his first trip to International Paper’s Franklin mill, we learn that one of his former political rivals is making a bid to buy the soon-to-be closed factory and convert it to a wood-fired power plant.
Terry McAuliffe — the businessman and Democratic National Committee chairman turned failed 2009 gubernatorial candidate — and other investors want to buy the plant, which is scheduled to close this spring, resulting in 1,100 layoffs. They want to turn it into a environmentally friendly biomass energy plant.
Sources in the governor’s office say McAuliffe and his partners would be eligible for tax credits, available in the new McDonnell administration, that would allow a $500 income tax credit for the creation of “green” jobs and a credit for up to 350 new green jobs if the jobs are in an enterprise zone.
