Lt. Governor Bolling
It is a prayer answered for many of us that you are serving another term. Many of the Orginazations that work year round as we do with at risk youth and Families need our Elected Officals to remember bills and etc. that would assit these youth and families that are having an even harder time during this recession . Thanks for all yout work to date.You, your Family and staff remain in our prayers.
Dear Lt. Gov Bolling,
Recently our facility was granted a Special Use Permit from the City of Fredericksburg as well as approval from the Virginia Department of Social Services Northern Licensing Office for a Before and After School Daycare.
How will you office partner with Faith Based Organizations to adress the needs of our children, particularly those with special needs?
Dear Lt. Gov. Bolling,
How will your office work with Faith Based organizations addressing the needs of our Special Needs children in the setting of Before and After School Daycare?
Hi LG Bolling! What are your thoughts on the proposed Ugandan bill that would subjugate gay and lesbian Ugandans to the death penalty? How are the American and Virginian approach to civil liberties for LGBT citizens superior? Thanks, Steven Latimer. Charlottesville Va.
We are deeply concerned over the draining of our Social Services, and Medical services by aliens, both illegal, and green card. How does Virginia plan to STOP this theft from American citizens? It is a serious problem seemingly ignored by our government at every level, and it is a tremendous financial burden on our Country’s already enormous debt load! Taking our citizen’s jobs is heinous enough in this time of record unemployment; but to add to that insult by stealing these services when Virginian’s need them more than ever, and backlogging our system, is appalling.
Sincerest Thanks!
We are praying for you!
Dear LG Bolling:
Is there any possibility of reviving Virginia manufacturing industries, e.g., textiles, furniture, etc., previously lost to foreign countries or others, via establishment in Virginia of combination employee owned/profit shared/bartering type businesses?
Lt Gov Bolling,
I am greatly concerned with the $50 million you and Gov McDonnell are requesting. It appears to be the exact type of market manipulation and spending that harms businesses that grow without Government help.
The Stimulus you intend to flood the State with is creating a crushing Federal Tax burden which will of necessity drive unemployment because consumers, investors AND business owners will be unable to recover.
Dedicating oil/gas revenue to ANY particular purpose will distort for example transportation build WAY ahead of demand and hence be a waste. I suggest reducing tax liability, dollar for dollar and putting a two thirds requirment to increase entitlement and spending a prudent alternative and one that would produce more jobs (and revenue) then ANY State in the Union.
Rural Virginia is already suffering from artificially high energy, labor, real estate and taxes. They have high unemployment BECAUSE of Government. Now it is the urban centers that will finally feel the heat DESPITE HUGH Federal subsidy.
Would you consider American’s for Prosperity’s “Model Budget” that would reduce State Govt by Five Billion? Would you reject the “green” pork and other markets manipulation and usurpation you’re promoting?

Northern Virginia continues to be overrun with large numbers of criminal illegal aliens, their children populate the public schools in the tens of thousands, they fill emergency rooms to the brim in order to get basic health care free, they drive vehicles without licenses or insurance with seeming immunity, local police do nothing on the orders of local Democrat politicians, they hold down jobs in such numbers that some businesses are difficult to work with because no one speaks English with any proficiency. And the State Police do nothing! When is this going to stop? If you are enter the country illegally, you have no right to be in Virginia. Republican politicians have shown great cowardice on this issue.
Lt. Governor Bolling: How is the new assignment of Chief Jobs Creation Officer going? Exectly what types of duties go into this position and how will it work? Is it unprecedented for the Lt. Gov. to take on a cabines level role? Thanks for all your good work!
Lt. Gov. Bolling,
Do you view the threatened move of an aircraft carrier from Hampton Roads to Mayport, FL as a strategic military decision or political patronage to the Democrats in Florida?
Loss of an aircraft carrier group would cost thousands of jobs in Virgina. As Jobs Czar, what can your office do to prevent this from happening?
Just a little background on the aircraft carrier issue, btw.

Lt. Gov.Bolling,
Thank you for your willingness to serve during these challenging times. What are your thoughts on reducing the hours of a “typical” work week in order to boost employment? I have a feeling that with more entrepreneurs, and more people willing to live within their means, our society may be shifting towards more efficiency and higher productivity, and actually require less folks working “full time” in the traditional sense. I see a major shift of priorities taking shape and believe that when all is said and done, our lives will all be a bit more balanced.
Lt. Gov Bolling,
While it appeared the recent election of Governor McDonnell assured a return to conservative values held by many Virginians, there is now reason to doubt.
How is it that Virginia’s Governor is signed on to Obama’s “Council of Governors”? Does that not, at minimum, imply a meeting of the minds? Certainly, many citizens in this Commonwealth do not support Obama, his Socialist agenda, nor the out of control spending. These were all platforms that landed both yourself and Governor McDonnell in office, now we wonder have we been betrayed.
What say you?
Not really a question, but just wanted to urge you to please DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD in the Commonwealth’s new budget.
Dear LG Bolling,
First, thank you for your service to Virginia. I am thankful for your re-election. My question: What will you do to promote parental choice for education during this term?
Thank you for taking the time to do this. I recently read a blog post that indicated that snow removal and other maintenance funds come from the “maintenance reserve fund.” Money to reopen rest areas is also being used from the reserve fund. Generally speaking, harsher winter weather creates more potholes and other maintenance needs, but there will be less money for that maintenance due to opening the rest areas. Given that, should the rest area openings be delayed? Will there be a renewed push for privatization?
