A conservative agenda for Virginia
Put Virginians back in control of their future.
The Virginia Compact educates voters about conservative policies that bring down the cost of a home, modernize our schools, keep communities safe and clean up state government, so the Commonwealth answers to the people who live here.
Who decides
Virginia's future should be written by Virginians.
Too many of the decisions that shape daily life here are made for someone else's benefit. The Compact starts from a simple idea: the people who pay the bills should set the direction.
Big Tech
The data center boom draws on our land, our water and our power grid. It should pay its way and answer to the communities that host it.
Big Unions
Policy should be written for the families and workers who live with it, not for the organized interests with the most lobbyists in Richmond.
Career Politicians
Public office is a trust, not a career plan. The rules should be clear, and they should apply to everyone who holds power.
The agenda
Eight commitments to the people of Virginia.
A compact is an agreement. These are the terms we think Virginians deserve from their government.
-
Stop adding to the cost of a home
Roll back the regulations and mandates that raise the price of every new house and apartment.
-
Build more homes
Grow Virginia's housing stock so young families and workers can afford to live near their jobs.
-
Modernize the classroom
Bring new technology into schools and update what children are taught for the economy they will work in.
-
Keep communities safe
Protect neighborhoods and families, and stand behind the people who protect and care for them.
-
Hold data centers accountable
An industry that leans this hard on our grid and our communities should answer to the public.
-
Make data centers pay their share
Raise taxes on data centers, so growth pays its own way instead of landing on families.
-
Put that money to work for Virginians
Dedicate data center revenue to named programs that reach a large number of Virginians, where everyone can see what it paid for.
-
End corruption in state government
Set clear ethics rules for the people in power, and enforce them the same way for everyone.
Our work
Good policy only matters if voters hear about it.
The Virginia Compact is a voter education effort. We do not back candidates or parties. We explain ideas, in plain language, to the people those ideas are meant to serve.
- Explain
Turn each proposal into something a busy person can read in a minute: what it does and who it helps.
- Show the numbers
Put a household price tag on policy, so affordability is something voters can check.
- Reach every corner
Carry the message across the Commonwealth, from Northern Virginia to Southwest and Hampton Roads to the Valley.
Virginians deserve to hear this message.
We are building the organization that will carry it. See how founding supporters can help.
