As lieutenant governor, Tim Kaine worked with Mark Warner to put
Virginia on the path to economic prosperity. Working together,
they created 250,000 new jobs, restored fiscal discipline and
made the largest investment in education in Virginia history.
As governor, Tim Kaine will build upon the progress made
during the Warner-Kaine administration and keep Virginia moving
forward.
Tim Kaine’s Plan:
Providing Quality Education to Our Children:
Tim Kaine will keep Virginia’s commitment to our children and
fully fund Virginia’s public schools. He will help attract and
keep the best teachers in Virginia and will make high-quality
pre-school available to all Virginia four-year-olds.
Reducing Property Taxes: Tim Kaine will
reduce homeowners’ taxes by exempting up to 20 percent of a
home’s assessment from the homeowner tax. He also will veto any
unfunded mandates on local governments and ensure more public
participation in the tax rate-setting process.
Solving Virginia’s Traffic Problems: Tim
Kaine will fight to protect taxpayer money meant for
transportation, empower communities to stop development that
will increase congestion and expand transit options, including
Metro.
Voting is our right and our responsibility. Let’s keep
Virginia on the right track.
