My fellow Virginians,
Virginia FREE enters its 33rd year of providing the Commonwealth’s business community with non-partisan information in order to help us elect pro-business legislators.
Given the consistently high marks that Virginia has received over the years, it would be reasonable to take some of the credit. However, Virginia FREE is a membership organization and any credit belongs squarely with the members like you who invest time, talent, and treasure in making Virginia regains the position as the best state in which to do business.
We have charged ourselves with not just holding legislators, aspiring and incumbent, accountable to pro-business policies, but also to foster an environment of cooperation, education, and leadership.
Unless we get government right, we can’t get our economy right, regardless of party.
Virginia holds a special place in world history.
Our goal for Virginia Free is to help create the best state in which to do business.
Learn more about how we use differentiation to rank our legislators as well as our exciting initiatives for 2019 – defining and publishing an accountable standard of governing excellence.
We call it The Virginia Way–Forward.
