Goodlatte again demonstrates his desire to maintain status quo and not improve quality of life for residents of SW Virginia. His selection of old, familiar faces to serve as 6th District’s Chief of Staff and District Director demonstrates his lack of insight into the change necessary for SW Virginia to become competitive in a rapidly changing world. Goodlatte’s vision is myopic; reactionary; and he is well known as one of Boehner’s “Soldiers”. We need LEADERS in Washington and Goodlatte is NOT one. Our infrastructure is in need of repair, more emphasis needs to be placed on education and on-going job skills training (throughout one’s lifetime), and people need JOBS. The rich have gotten richer and the poor have gotten poorer while Goodlatte was in Congress and that is a fact. He is as ‘do nothing’ Representative as is in Washington. SW Virginia deserves much better representation than this GOP minion can deliver. If teachers get graded by their students’ test scores, why doesn’t congress get graded by their performance, as well? Goodlatte, simply fails and let’s replace him next election!
