It’s hard to believe that we’re already in week five of the 2008 session of the Virginia General Assembly. It’s been a productive and exciting session so far. Senate Bill 54, which I introduced and which encourages and supports the construction of affordable housing in Falls Church, passed the Senate unanimously and is on its way to the House of Delegates. Unfortunately, Senate Bill 300, which was strongly supported by the Falls Church City Council and which would have banned the carrying of dangerous weapons in government buildings, was not successful.
