Last Name: Neil Organization: City of Portsmoutjh - Portsmouth Public Schools M/WBE Program - Procurement Office Locality: Hampton

The Portsmouth Public Schools M/WBE Program - Procurement Office strongly supports these bills: HB 341- Benefits seniors, and it is a preference bill that postively impacts SWaMs. HB1108 - provides transparency in the State procurement contracting program. HB1191 - transfers authority fro the DGS to the Division of Engineering and Buildings to evaluate the use of construction management or desigh-build by state public bodies and requires decision approval at a public meeting. HB 1361 - allows Virginia business owners to match the price of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, and it is a preference bill. Please support these important initiatives that help support M/WBEs and SM/WBEs. Thank you
