Despite facing an extreme Republican legislature as Virginia’s 72nd Governor, Terry made important progress for the Commonwealth on the economy and education, and he stood up for Virginians’ most basic civil rights at every turn. Terry secured a record $1 billion investment in education and expanded preschool to thousands of children, created 200,000 jobs and raised personal income 14%, and successfully stood up to every Republican attack on Virginians’ reproductive rights and LGBTQ+ equality.
As Virginia’s next governor, Terry will build on his strong record and the progress made under Governor Ralph Northam. Terry will fight to accelerate Virginia’s minimum wage increase to $15 by 2024, make sure all workers have access to paid sick, family and medical leave, and make sure child care is more accessible and affordable. He will also work to ensure that all Virginians have access to quality, affordable health care and a safe and affordable place to call home, and Terry will make an unprecedented investment in education to ensure every Virginia child has equitable access to a world-class education and a brighter future.
